When the actress got a call to meet with the creators of The Penguin, a new HBO Batman spinoff series, she came prepared. 'We had this really beautiful two-hour-long Zoom call, and I got to geek out about how much I love Batman and this whole world,' Milioti shares.
'The villains are always the best roles,' Milioti says with a cheeky smile. Batman villains, all delinquent, diabolical, and nostalgic in their own right, take the cake.
Her excitement following the call quickly turned to devastation when three weeks had passed and she heard nothing. Her Batman dreams seemed all but dashed until she got a call out of the blue to come out to Los Angeles and screen-test with Farrell.
Milioti was ecstatic to lift another Gotham antihero off the page, and what a deliciously complicated and layered villain Ms. Falcone was.
