The Penguin: Colin Farrell makes this surprising revelation on the set

The series The Penguin, which landed this weekend on the Max platform, has garnered a shower of praise from the press across the Atlantic. Led by an unrecognizable Colin Farrell, the same one who already paced Matt Reeves' Batman, the plot is as dark as it is tortuous… To escape from it, here is the stratagem that the main actor used!

HBO has just unveiled the first spin-off series of The Batman, titled The Penguin, dedicated to the villain of the same name who terrifies Gotham in DC comics. First appearing in Detective Comics #58 in December 1941, Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot is a supervillain with a deformed appearance. This gang leader has turned to the world of crime while continuing to claim his aristocratic origins. This drug and arms traffickerwith a soul as black as a bat's wings is now back on the small screen, in an eight-episode mini-series in his name. As his lead actor, Colin Farrell, reveals to our colleagues at APEntertainment, it wasn't always easy to distance himself from the pessimistic atmosphere of the shoot…

The star explains that she watched Pixar animated films while filming Penguin to escape the darkness and pessimism of the series:

I watched Toy Story, I would watch them all at the end of the work day for The Penguin, just to have something light and beautiful.

Colin Farrell had already teased in the past that ThePenguin would be more violent than The Batman, but we didn't imagine to what extent! Escaping through a cartoon whose message is so beautiful and touching, very positive, seems like a good way to break away from a trying shoot, what do you think?
