Max Gao is a freelance entertainment and sports journalist based in Toronto. He has written for NBC News, The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Sports Illustrated, The Daily Beast, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Men's Health, Teen Vogue and W Magazine.

Zachary Quinto has always relished the opportunity to play villains, having starred as a brain-eating serial killer in “Heroes,” a deranged doctor in “American Horror Story: Asylum” and a child kidnapper in “NOS4A2.” But in the new NBC medical drama “Brilliant Minds,” which premieres Monday, the Emmy-nominated actor, who broke out as Spock in “Star Trek,” gets to play a different kind of brooding brainiac — a modern-day character inspired by the life and books of Dr.
