Following the events of Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka The Penguin, makes a show to seize the reigns of Gotham’s underworld. got into the character during the production of “The Penguin”. Colin Farrell fought hard to land his smoking tobacco version of The Penguin in Batman (2022), but failed. However, his own series portrays the character as an occasional tobacco user who prefers cigars.

The umbrella drops and the logo changes to the Warner Bros. logo. Featuring Graham Norton and guests: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024). I thought Colin Farrell was great as the Penguin in Batman, but I’ve never understood how you take a skinny, good looking actor and put him in massive prosthetics and a fat suit…
who would have been just as good
especially when I think he looks like some of the others famous actors. I also didn’t really understand why this spinoff came along, and to be honest, I’m just tired of Batman reboots. But after episode 1, I will confirm that this show is amazing (so far). I only watched it knowing it was a bridge between the first and second movies and my surprise enjoyment of Farrell’s performance in the first.
But I didn’t expect to like it nearly as much
The acting is great, the writing is great, and it surprised me with some quick twists. The biggest thing I liked was the fact that it had a lot more color than Batman. I noticed this almost immediately because it was a huge complaint I had about the movie (it felt like I was watching it through a Zack Snyder lens). I hope it continues to be as good because I really can’t wait for the next episode.
