Cristin Milioti won the “Best Actress in a Limited Series” Emmy last night (9/16/2025) for her role of Sofia Falcone in the HBO/DC Studios’ THE PENGUIN.
Congrats, Cristin from BOF! We LOVED THE PENGUIN and you in it!
So, what about that second season of the series that we’ve been hearing about? Here’s what the guru of THE BATMAN EPIC CRIME SAGA, Matt Reeves, had to say when asked at the Emmys (via VARIETY)…
We’re in discussions. [Showrunner] Lauren [Lefranc] is thinking hard and we’re talking, so we’ll see. We love the show, and we think our cast is so incredible. The work that Lauren and the writers did was incredible. Our passion was in it, but never in our wildest dreams could we imagine it would have been received in the way that it was.
Yes, we know there have been discussions, and I get why they’d want to do another as well as why they should just let it be. Personally, I lean towards the just let it be side, BUT…I think it would be cool to do another series, not only featuring Oz Cobb (Colin Farrell) again, but perhaps also Cristin Milioti and Zoe Kravitz as the half-sister duo of Sofia Falcone and Selina Kyle? As I always say, I’m just a fan, so I’ll fan and leave the creative stuff like this to the creatives.
With all that said, the only reason that we’d get another HBO series that’s part of THE BATMAN EPIC CRIME SAGA is if THE BATMAN PART II is a big success and Reeves gets to finish the thing as planned with a trilogy of films. Here’s hoping that’s allowed by the folks at WB/DC Studios, who want to get to the DCU version of Batman yesterday. – Bill “Jett” Ramey
