Narrative
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. For his own series however, the character is depicted as an occasional tobacco user, with a preference for cigars..
Farrell STEALS this series
The DC Studios logo is set in a raining Gotham alley. 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). He’s impressive.
The show is gritty and graphic
There is nothing in the character that even hints of Farrell. The NY dialect, the sway and limp, the attitude: you’d swear it was another person. The amazing prosthetics are very realistic and adds to the character. There is nothing cartoonish about it.
Well-written and taut
This makes a great counterpart to Christopher Nolan’s Batman. In fact, I’d say this blows Marvel’s line out of the water. I’m hoping that their might be a season 2, but I know that this is limited. It’s a shame.
