Well, this is, um, expected.

Via VARIETY, MAX/HBO’s Casey Bloys says that THE BATMAN spinoff series (which is kinda the defacto sequel to THE BATMAN) THE PENGUIN will commence airing in September.

If you’re a regular reader of BOF and listen to THE BOF SOCIAL HOUR podcasts, you know that we speculated that THE PENGUIN would debut sometime in September or early October of this year. That way, all 8 episodes would air in 2024, and the series end before the end of the year.

Stay tuned to BOF for our full coverage of THE PENGUIN.  Yours truly will be handling the written reviews/recaps of each episode and Team BOF will discuss each episode on several episodes of THE ORIGINAL BOF PODCAST. – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. If there is a Mount Rushmore of this stuff, his face is already up there — sunglasses on, arms crossed, probably telling someone to calm down. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
