What is The Penguin about?
The Penguin will reunite fans of The Batman with Colin Farrell's Oz Cobb, AKA The Penguin.
The series will dig deeper into Gotham’s criminal underworld, as Oz tries to become the biggest player in the game. The show will also see Oz go up against Cristin Milioti's Sofia Falcone, the daughter of John Turturro's Carmine, who has been newly released from Arkham Asylum.
Farrell previously teased of the show, when he finished filming: "It’s dark, The Penguin. It’s so dark. I’m so glad to be done with it, and I loved it, but man I was ready not to sit in the makeup chair anymore when we finished.
"I loved doing the character in the film and this really did get to look, as they say in America, under the hood."
