The Penguin is about to land on our screens ready to take over Gotham City! After the official trailer, Max released a new promo for the series that hints at darkness as its hallmark. Ready?
Here we go!
In the new trailer, we see how Penguin controls the underworld of the city. He is powerful and no one dares to challenge him. While he may appear to be a calm and even affable man, in reality, he is cold, calculating, violent, and always ready to make it clear who is the king of the shadowy world he lives in.
However, it doesn’t seem like Penguin will be alone in that world. A woman with a desire for revenge is willing to ally with him to take justice into her own hands.
Separately, they are dangerous.
Together, they are relentless.
Starring Colin Farrell as Oz Cobb (aka “The Penguin”), the DC Studios series continues filmmaker Matt Reeves’ The Batman epic crime saga that began with Warner Bros. Pictures’ global blockbuster The Batman. Developed by showrunner Lauren LeFranc, the series centers on the character played by Farrell in the film.
The Penguin features Colin Farrell (Oz Cobb), Cristin Milioti (Sofia Falcone), Rhenzy Feliz (Victor Aguilar), Michael Kelly (Johnny Viti), Shohreh Aghdashloo (Nadia Maroni), Deirdre O’Connell (Francis Cobb), Clancy Brown (Salvatore Maroni), James Madio (Milos Grapa), Scott Cohen (Luca Falcone), Michael Zegen (Alberto Falcone), Carmen Ejogo (Eve Karlo), and Theo Rossi (Dr. Julian Rush).
The series is executive produced by Matt Reeves, Dylan Clark, Colin Farrell, Lauren LeFranc, who writes and serves as showrunner, Craig Zobel, who directs the first three episodes, and Bill Carraro.
Based on characters created for DC by Bob Kane with Bill Finger, The Penguin is produced by Reeves’ 6th & Idaho Productions and Dylan Clark Productions in association with Warner Bros Television, where Reeves and 6th & Idaho are under an overall deal, and DC Studios. Daniel Pipski also serves as executive producer.
The Penguin will premiere on Thursday, September 19 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO.
