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 got into character during the production of 'The Penguin.' Colin Farrell fought hard to get the Penguin's version of The Batman (2022) to smoke tobacco, but failed. However, for his own series, the character is described as a casual smoker with a preference for cigars.. The DC Studios logo is placed on a rainy Gotham alley.

I've never seen Farell so invested in a character

An umbrella falls and the logo changes to the Warner Bros. logo. Featured in Graham Norton i costi: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024). So the first episode is up and it was excellent.

It's mobster Scorsese, but without the flowery language

I mean, yes, he's wearing a fat suit, but you'd never know it. His attitude, his body language, his voice make you immerse yourself in the character and see only Penguin. He is no relation to any of the other live TV penguins, Burgess Meredith or Robin Lord Taylor. This is a mobster from New York, a wise guy.

The penguin is a middle man in a mafia organization

The plot is simple, similar to Lord Taylors Penguin on CW's Gotham. So far he's done his time, slowly working his way into the crowd and then with the effects of the Riddler blowing up the city wall and the death of his boss in that movie, he sees a chance to move out into the world. . Now begins the game of cross, double cross and, I suppose, triple cross.

Very entertaining and highly recommended
