However, in his own series, the character is portrayed as an occasional tobacco user who prefers cigars
Synopsis
Following the events of Batman (2022), Oz Cobb, aka Penguin, attempts to take over Gotham’s criminal underworld. With the exception of the Bat-Signal in the final shot of the season finale, we never got a glimpse of Robert Pattinson’s role in “Penguin.” In this short film, IMDb tries to answer: Where the hell was Batman?. Colin Farrell fought hard to get his version of Penguin to smoke tobacco in Batman (2022), but to no avail.

The umbrella falls and the logo changes to the Warner Bros. logo. In Graham Norton’s tastes: Lady Gaga/Demi Moore/Colin Farrell/Richard Ayoade/Jack Savoretti (2024).
But after watching the first episode, I’ll confirm that this show is amazing (so far)
I thought Colin Farrell was great as the Penguin in Batman, but I never understood casting a skinny, good looking, fit actor and putting him in a massive prosthetic and a fat suit… especially when I think he looks like other famous actors who would do it would be just as good. I also really didn’t understand why this spinoff was coming, and honestly, I’m just tired of Batman reboots.
But I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did
I watched it just knowing that it was a bridge between the first and second movies and my unexpected joy in Farrell in the first. The acting is great, the writing is excellent, and it surprised me with a few quick twists. The biggest thing I liked about it was that there was so much more color in it than in Batman.
I hope it’s just as good, because I really can’t wait for the next episode
I noticed this almost immediately, because it was a huge criticism of the movie for me (I felt like I was watching it through the prism of Zack Snyder).
