DC, home of Wonder Woman, Superman, Green Lantern, The Flash and of course Batman, has announced that it will be creating a new series themed around the penguin. “The Penguin” is just the working title. Colin Farrell has already been confirmed.
The series will take off on HBO Max, Sky is one of the licensees in this country, but RTL is also recently joined via WarnerMedia. If you look at the series landscape, you will see that spin-offs, in particular, are booming and will continue to be so.
The current Penguin project was one of several The Batman spinoff ideas in development for HBO Max. If it’s done well, you can probably be happy for all the fans.
Every story has a beginning. The Penguin (working title), a new limited series starring Colin Farrell, is coming to @hbomax. Matt Reeves, Dylan Clark, Colin Farrell, and Lauren LeFranc to serve as executive producers. pic.twitter.com/qL7sJI7cVe

Meanwhile, I’m waiting for the start of Doom Patrol season 3 in Germany. The DC anti-heroes have been running on Prime Video so far, unfortunately, season 3 is nowhere to be found.
