‘The Penguin’ Trailer: Colin Farrell Shoots, Stabs and Dumps Bodies to Control Gotham’s Crime Streets
variety.comJordan Moreau Comic-Con turned into Gotham City for DC’s “The Penguin” panel at Hall H. Star Colin Farrell couldn’t attend the panel in person, but he joined via Zoom for a panel on the “Batman” spinoff series.
He was joined by director Matt Reeves, co-stars Cristin Milioti and Rhenzy Feliz and makeup designer Mike Marino. The new trailer shows Farrell’s Penguin shooting and stabbing his way to power in the crime-filled streets of Gotham.
He’s seen firing uzis at cars and controlling the flow of drugs in his Iceberg Lounge club. Sofia Falcone (Milioti), the daughter of late crime boss Carmine Falcone, is out of Arkham Asylum and ready to take on Penguin for control of Gotham. “The world ain’t set up for the honest man to succeed,” he says in the trailer. “America is a hustle.” “The Penguin” is set to premiere on HBO on September 19 and run for eight episodes.
Farrell reprises his shocking, villainous transformation from Reeves’ “The Batman” for the spinoff series, which takes place a week after the film’s story ends.
