In this short video, IMDb tries to answer: Where the hell was Batman?
Narrative
After the events of “Batman” (2022), Oz Cobb, aka The Penguin, tries to seize the reins of the underworld in Gotham. Except for the bat signal in the final shot of the season finale, we never got a Robert Pattinson cameo in The Penguin. Colin Farrell fought hard for his version of the Penguin to smoke tobacco in Batman (2022), but to no avail. However, in his own series, the character is depicted as a casual tobacco user who prefers cigars.
So the first episode is over and it was excellent
The DC Studios logo is located in a rainy Gotham alley. An umbrella falls and the logo changes to the Warner Bros. logo. Featured in The Graham Norton Show: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024).
I’ve never seen Farrell so immersed in a character
I mean, yes, he’s wearing a thick suit, but you’d never know it. His attitude, body language, voice – all this makes you immerse yourself in the character and see only Penguin. He is not related to any of the other live penguins, Burgess Meredith or Robin Lord Taylor. This is a New York gangster, a smart guy.
He’s Scorsese’s gangster, but without the ornate tongue
The plot is simple, similar to Penguin Lord Taylor on CW’s Gotham. Penguin is a mediator in a mafia organization. Until now, he has served his time, slowly moving up in the mafia, and then, with the consequences of the explosion of the city dam by the Riddler and the death of his boss in this film, he sees a chance to move up in the world. Now begins the game of cross, double cross and, I believe, triple cross.
