Colin Farrell’s Penguin Banned From Smoking in ‘The Batman’: ‘I Fought Valiantly for a Cigar’

Zack Sharf The Penguin is often depicted in comic books with his trademark top hat, monocle and cigarette, but none of these signatures are sported by Colin Farrell in the upcoming “The Batman.” The film takes place before Oswald Cobblepot’s full transformation into the villainous Penguin. However, Farrell recently told “Jake’s Takes” that he “fought valiantly” for his pre-Penguin Oswald to smoke in “The Batman.” The studio turned down such a request.“Big studios make big decisions around such things as the presence of cigarettes in films,” Farrell said.

12 awful performances in brilliant movies, from Hugh Grant to Jake Gyllenhaal

Gangs of New York), to choices that are more controversial (Hugh Grant in Love Actually? Yes, really!)And while you’re here, why not also sample the inverse of this strange occurrence – brilliant performances in otherwise terrible movies…Gyllenhaal is guilty of too much acting in Denis Villeneuve’s grimy child-abduction thriller. While the other A-listers that surround him (including Hugh Jackman and Viola Davis) bury themselves in grief and rage, Gyllenhaal seems to be in a different film entirely. He’s all twitches and facial tics, injecting off-putting weirdness in a movie that absolutely doesn’t need it.
