The upcoming Penguin series is said to be in early development and will be executive produced by The Batman‘s Dylan Clark and Matt Reeves.
Oswald Cobblepot will once again be played by Colin Farrell in the character’s upcoming HBO Max series, which is a spin-off of The Batman.
The character has a rich history of live-action appearances as Danny DeVito famously played Penguin in Batman Returns and Robin Lord Taylor portrays him in Gotham.
The series will focus on Cobblepot’s past and show his rise to power in Gotham’s seedy underbelly rather than him as the established kingpin.
