Clash Over Gotham City Ensues in Mid-Season Penguin Promo Trailer
In the dark and gritty world of Gotham City, the reign of Oswald "Oz" Cobblepot (Colin Farrell) as the crime boss is underway in the highly-acclaimed HBO series, "The Penguin." [1]
The show, which is closely tied to Matt Reeves' "The Batman" universe, follows Oz's rise to power after the events of the 2022 film. [2, 3, 4] While there is no explicit confirmation that Farrell will reprise his role as the Penguin in "The Batman Part II," his critically-acclaimed portrayal in "The Penguin" series suggests that he will likely continue to be involved in this Gotham crime saga. [2, 3, 4]
The new trailer for "The Penguin" begins with a sequence reminiscent of how Matt Reeves shot Robert Pattinson's Batman in "The Batman." It hints at a full-blown war for Gotham City, with Oz standing in Sofia Falcone's way. [1]
Sofia Falcone, played by Cristin Milioti, is depicted as being at the height of her powers and taking her father's place in the show. [1] The trailer suggests that the show's conclusion may feature a power struggle for the throne, with Sofia Falcone as a possible contender. [1]
Oz is shown as desperately looking for someone to trust in the new trailer, while Victor's character is getting in over his head. [1] The show's events are expected to lead directly into "The Batman Part II," but specific details about Farrell's role in the sequel are not provided in the current results. [2, 3, 4]
For those seeking official updates on Farrell’s participation in "The Batman Part II," keeping an eye on announcements from Warner Bros. or DC Films would be recommended. [2, 3, 4]
Four more episodes of "The Penguin" are coming starting Sunday, and the series is now streaming on Max. [5] The release date for "The Batman Part II" has not been specified. [2, 3, 4]
