Scenario
Following the events of The Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka the Penguin, attempts to take over the Gotham crime world. Aside from the bat signal in the final shot of the season finale, we never got our Robert Pattinson cameo as “The Penguin.” In this short video, IMDb attempts to answer: where the hell was Batman? Colin Farrell fought hard to have his version of the Penguin smoke tobacco in The Batman (2022), but failed. However, for his series, the character is depicted as a casual tobacco user, with a preference for cigars.
He nailed the tone and atmosphere perfectly
An umbrella falls and the logo transforms into the Warner Bros. logo. Appeared in Graham Norton’s Gosti: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024). Raw, dirty and dark, but Farrell is able to capture that glimmer of charm that Gandolfini’s Tony Soprano did.
Where to start with Farrell
There are similarities to the Sopranos, especially in tone. A lot of dark stuff happens in this opening episode, but there are still comedic moments that fit the tone and don’t undermine it. Amazing is the right word. I love seeing talented actors give their all in roles like this, and the makeup/CGI or whatever they did to physically transform him into the Penguin not only passes the visual test, but looks incredibly realistic.
And Farrell as an actor is completely immersed in this role
There’s always the risk that if the makeup isn’t good enough or is just a little fake, it could be completely distracting. In the Penguin, it adds to his performance and the overall quality of the show because it’s a damn good job. Maybe I’m a little biased because he was one of my favorite actors before this show, but I think this will earn him some deserved recognition. I never watch new shows right away because I like to watch the episodes at the same time, but I wanted to see how this one would play out.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this project
It didn’t disappoint, in fact, it left me speechless. Check out our recap of “Yellowstone” season 5 part 2, “Squid Game” season 2, and more of the most anticipated new and returning series on TV and streaming.
