The intricate process of his makeup and costume is a testament to the dedication and artistry involved in bringing such iconic characters to life.


HBO recently shared a sneak peek at the intricate makeup transformation of Colin Farrell into Oz Cobb (aka The Penguin) for an upcoming television series.

After completing the role, Farrell expressed relief, stating something along the lines of, “I swore I’d never don that costume and that wig again!

He clarified, “I didn’t dislike it at all – quite the contrary, I enjoyed it immensely. However, by the end of it, I found myself complaining to anyone who would listen, expressing my desire for it to come to an end.” He further remarked.

On September 19, “The Penguin” premieres with Colin Farrell playing the lead character. Additionally starring are Michael Kelly as Johnny Vitti, Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone, Shohreh Aghdashloo as Nadia Maroni, Clancy Brown as Salvatore Maroni, James Madio as Milos Grapa, Scott Cohen as Luca Falcone, Michael Zegen as Alberto Falcone, Theo Rossi as Julian Rush, and Carmen Ejogo as Eve Karlo in this series.

According to Farrell, The Penguin is described as “extremely dark and heavy.” Additionally, the actor noted that the show is “extremely violent,” “very twisted.” However, Robert Pattinson will not be appearing in The Penguin, neither as Bruce Wayne nor Batman. Fans will have to wait until 2026 for Pattinson’s return as Batman in The Batman II.
