Colin Farrell's portrayal of Oswald Cobb in The Penguin redefines the character as a morally complex, low-level mob enforcer who strives to rise above his station.
The Penguin takes its dramatic heft from exploring the psyche of a dangerously ambitious loser, capturing the struggles of a character often overlooked and underestimated.
The series draws inspiration from post-antihero influences, blending elements from shows like Sopranos and Better Call Saul, but Farrell's performance makes it stand out.
Despite its darker themes, The Penguin remains engaging through Farrell's wild performance, showcasing brutality and complexity that enrich the Batman universe.
