Scenario
Following the events of The Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka The Penguin, makes a play to take over the reins of Gotham’s criminal underworld. From melting makeup to filming in freezing temperatures, Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti talk about how they became the character during the production of “The Penguin.” Colin Farrell fought hard to have the Penguin’s version of The Batman (2022) smoke tobacco, but it didn’t work out. However, for his own series, the character is depicted as a casual tobacco user, with a preference for cigars.

The Penguin is simply awesome
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 a few awards for his role in this. The biggest surprise was Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone.
I was wrong
I wasn’t too sure when I heard she was cast in this role, she’s a good actress but didn’t think this role was for her. She’s just as good as Farrell in this and makes you think Sofia Falcone is a real rival to the Penguin. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see her nominated for some awards for her role in this.
That’s how you do it DC
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’ Batman.
