Is The Penguin Season 2 Happening? Colin Farrell Teases
During a recent interview on the talk show This Morning, Colin Farrell was asked whether he is open to reprising his iconic role in the second season of The Penguin.
Aside from expressing interest in doing another installment of The Batman spinoff series, he teased that there might be potential discussions about developing the next season.
"I’d love to. I’d love to do a second season. There’s definitely a conversation to be had about doing a second season," the actor said.
Farrell also teased his return in The Batman Part II, where he confirmed that he only shot two scenes for the sequel.
"So the Batman film, they're doing the sequel to The Batman, and I did two scenes in that. Just that. In and out. It was a bit tasty to do it. I was kind of moaning about the makeup again, but I do love the character, and I'm very protective of the character," he added.
This is an interesting remark from Farrell, since it showed that they might still consider doing a second season of The Penguin. However, with the recent leadership change at DC Studios, there might be uncertainty about whether it will actually happen as the new management might have a different plan instead for the Batman universe.
For now, let's wait for potential updates in the coming months regarding whether The Penguin will be revisited.
