Colin Farrell’s The Penguin series gets an impressive new logo inspired by the artwork from The Batman
The newly rebranded Max (formerly HBO Max) has added a coming soon page for the upcoming DC series The Penguin. Although recent reports have suggested the series has been impacted by the ongoing writer’s strikes, the streamer is charging ever forwards. And today, our reward is the stylized new logo based on the logo Matt Reeves used so famously for The Batman. Check out the logo below.
OSWALD COBBELPOT RETURNS!
The Penguin: Starring Colin Farrell, the eight-episode Max Original series continues the epic crime saga Matt Reeves began with The Batman.
“Penguin will sit immediately after the end of The Batman and temporally before the events of the second movie. The show will come out in between the two movies. Now beyond that, it’s fun for the audience to know that it will be a bridge between the two, but the actual release date, I’m not at liberty to say.” Sarah Aubrey (Head of Max Originals) recently told Variety.
CAST & CREW
The Penguin stars Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot a.k.a The Penguin. Cristin Milioti has joined the cast as Sofia Falcone and Clancy Brown rounds out the main trio as Salvatore Maroni. Recent additions to the cast are Carmen Ejogo, Francois Chau, and David H. Holmes in unnamed roles. Theo Rossi, James Madio, and Scott Cohen are also set to feature prominently throughout the series’ confirmed eight-episode run.
RELEASE
The Penguin is slated for release sometime in 2024. However, this date might shift depending on how much impact the writer’s strikes play in proceedings. The series has been written by Lauren LeFranc with Craig Zobel directing the first three episodes.
