Colin Farrell tried hard to get his version of The Penguin in Batman (2022) to smoke, but he failed
Story
After the events of “The Batman” (2022), Oz Cobb, aka The Penguin, tries to take control of Gotham’s underworld. From melting makeup to filming in freezing temperatures: Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti talk about how they found their roles during production “Penguin”. However, in his own series, the character is portrayed as a casual smoker with a penchant for cigars and is seen in a rainy Gotham alley.
The umbrella falls and the logo changes to the Warner Bros
logo. Seen in “Graham Norton and Guests”: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024). I thought Colin Farrell was great as the Penguin in Batman, but I never understood why you would put a skinny, handsome, toned actor in giant braces and a fat suit…
But after the first episode, I can confirm that this series (so far) is fantastic
especially since I think he’s similar to other famous actors like him, which would be just as good . I also didn’t really understand why this spinoff came out and to be honest, I’m sick of Batman reboots. I only saw it because I knew it had to be watch it as a bridge between the first and second films and because I surprisingly liked Farrell in the role in the first.
But I didn’t expect to like it nearly as much
The acting is great, the script is excellent and I was surprised by a few quick twists. I liked it the most which was much more colorful here than in Batman. I noticed this almost immediately, as it was my big complaint about the film (it felt like I was watching it through Zack Snyder’s lens).
