The Penguin, a new Max series set in the universe of Matt Reeves' The Batman, premiered with a focus on Colin Farrell's Oswald 'Oz' Cobb as he navigates Gotham's chaotic underworld following the death of crime boss Carmine Falcone. Despite speculation, Robert Pattinson's Batman does not appear, as the series takes place just a week after the events of The Batman, with the Caped Crusader likely dealing with the fallout from Riddler's attack on the city. The episode introduces significant conflict as Oz kills Alberto Falcone, pushing him into a power struggle amidst the criminal chaos. The series explores Oz's character more deeply than the film, showcasing his mistakes and manipulations in a corrupt environment. Additionally, Mark Strong replaces John Turturro as Carmine Falcone due to scheduling conflicts, a decision that the showrunner expressed confidence in. The Penguin offers a darker, gritty exploration of Gotham's underbelly, setting the stage for potential future developments in the DC universe.
