THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER has a great feature article on THE PENGUIN.  It’s definitely worth a read, and here are a few highlights…

Colin Farrell on the young Oz Cobb killing his 2 brothers:

I’m not excusing him, don’t get me wrong, but he wasn’t an architectural fucking engineer when he was 10.  I don’t think he necessarily knew that, in closing one sewer gate, it was going to be hermetically sealed and the water was going to rise twenty feet, killing his brothers.

Lauren LeFranc on Oz killing his protege Victor in the season one finale:

He’s always been this man. We’ve just been a little bit forgiving of him.  When Oz kills Victor, it’s like he’s ripping his own heart out, and it’s appalling. There’s no justification for it. I hope that it leaves the audience to question why we ever trusted a man like this.

Colin Farrell on how Oz killing Victor complicates a possible second season:

I certainly think it makes [a second season] more difficult. [Killing Vic] is a very hard thing to claw back from.  It’s not impossible, but it’s a tougher hill to climb.

Cristin Milioti on the future of Sofia Falcone:

I would love to continue to play Sofia in any way.  I would also love to see Sofia and Selina team up and wreak complete and utter havoc on Gotham. I don’t think we’ve ever seen that in the Batman universe.

This is just a small sample from the article.  As I said, it’s very much worth your time to give it a read if you are a fan of THE PENGUIN and Matt Reeves’ THE BATMAN EPIC CRIME SAGA. – 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. 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.
