Anticipation mounts regarding the potential appearances of certain penguin characters in The Batman's sequel, The Batman: Part II, aschatters deliberate on the possibilities.
In an exciting development for fans of the Dark Knight, it has been confirmed that Colin Farrell will reprise his role as The Penguin in The Batman: Part II. The sequel to 2022's critically acclaimed film, The Batman, is scheduled to release in October 2027 [1][2][5].
Farrell's return to the role of Oz Cobblepot, the deformed crime boss who rose to power in Gotham's underworld, was discussed in the 15th August 2025 episode of The Hot Mic by John Rocha and Jeff Sneider [3]. However, Farrell mentioned that his role in the sequel will likely be limited, with only a few scenes [2][5].
The HBO miniseries The Penguin, a spin-off from the 2022 blockbuster The Batman, stars Farrell alongside Cristin Milioti, who played Sofia Falcone. Milioti's character, Sofia Gigante/Falcone, was institutionalized in Arkham in the closing moments of The Penguin, and she is rumored to return in The Batman: Part II [2][4]. Yet, there is no official confirmation as to whether Milioti will reprise her role in the sequel film.
As of now, there is no official confirmation about the renewal of The Penguin for a second season [6]. Channing Dungey, chairman of the Warner Bros. Television Group, addressed the possibility of a second season of The Penguin in a Variety interview, but she did not provide any specific details [7].
Fans can stream all eight episodes of The Penguin on HBO Max and eagerly await further updates on the sequel and the potential return of Cristin Milioti's Sofia Falcone. Stay tuned for more information on The Batman: Part II as it becomes available.
