Colin Farrell’s Penguin from The Batman undergoes a makeover inspired by Rocksteady’s beloved Arkham City video game.
When The Batman trailer first debuted during DC FanDome, many were quick to overlook the first appearance of Colin Farrell’s Penguin since the actor is completely unrecognizable. Since the DC film has resumed filming overseas, more set photos have come out that offer a better look at Matt Reeves’ take on the Penguin, which bears a resemblance to the version in Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham City.
