Fans eager for more grim justice in Gotham have been holding their breath for news on 'The Batman Part II', and now, the iconic actor behind Oswald Cobblepot, Colin Farrell, has offered a tantalizing glimpse into the highly anticipated sequel. In a recent interview, Farrell shared some surprising details about the script, or rather, the surprising lack of details regarding his own character's involvement.
Speaking candidly, Farrell revealed that while he has indeed seen a script for the follow-up to Matt Reeves' critically acclaimed 2022 film, his villainous alter ego, The Penguin, might not be as central to the narrative as some might expect.
“I've read the script,” Farrell stated, “and it’s just extraordinary.” However, he quickly added with a hint of playful mystery, “It's not as big a part as my standalone show.” This revelation is sure to spark discussions among fans, especially given the significant impact The Penguin had in the first movie and the excitement surrounding his upcoming HBO Max spin-off series.
Farrell's comments confirm that the script for 'The Batman Part II' is indeed progressing, alleviating some concerns about the project's timeline following the dual Hollywood strikes.
His enthusiasm for the new script is palpable, indicating that Reeves and co-writer Mattson Tomlin are crafting something truly special. The actor's surprise at the extent of his role suggests that the sequel may delve into different corners of Gotham's rogues' gallery or explore new narrative arcs for Robert Pattinson's Caped Crusader.
The standalone Penguin series, titled 'The Penguin', is set to bridge the gap between 'The Batman' and its sequel, exploring Cobblepot's rise to power in the criminal underworld after the events of the first film.
Farrell's remarks imply that while the series will be a deep dive into the character, 'The Batman Part II' might focus on other antagonists or a broader conflict that doesn't place Penguin front and center, at least not in a capacity equal to his own show.
While exact plot details for 'The Batman Part II' remain tightly under wraps, Farrell's insights provide a fascinating peek behind the curtain.
His excitement for the script, coupled with the intriguing hint about Penguin's role, only amplifies the anticipation for what promises to be another dark and compelling chapter in the Batman saga. Fans can rest assured that with Matt Reeves at the helm and a stellar cast, the wait for the next installment will be worth it, even if Oswald Cobblepot is taking a slightly less prominent role this time around.
