Synopsis
Following the events of The Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka
the Penguin, makes a play to seize the reins of the crime world in Gotham.. Except for the bat signal in the final shot of the season finale, we never got our Robert Pattinson cameo in "The Penguin." In this short video, IMDb tries to answer: Where the heck was Batman?. Colin Farrell fought hard to have his version of The Penguin smoke tobacco in The Batman (2022) but was unsuccessful.
The DC Studios logo is set in a raining Gotham alley
For his own series however, the character is depicted as an occasional tobacco user, with a preference for cigars.. An umbrella drops and the logo changes to the Warner Bros logo.. Featured in The Graham Norton Show: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024).
The Penguin is just terrific
Wow. Everyone knows what a great actor Colin Farrell is but he's unrecognizable here as The Penguin. I wouldn't be surprised to see him nominated for some awards for his role in this.
I was wrong
The biggest surprise was Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone. I wasn't too sure when I heard she was named actress for this role, she's a good actress but didn't think this role was for her. She's as good as Farrell is in this and makes you believe Sofia Falcone is a true rival to The Penguin.
This is how you do it DC
I also wouldn't be surprised to see how nominated for some awards for her role in this. This isn't your typical DC or Marvel show, it's a full on gangster series. This series takes place in the underworld of a now semi destroyed Gotham City and is a great follow up to Matt Reeves' The Batman.
