THE BATMAN Spin-Off THE PENGUIN Reveals New Logo Ahead Of Planned 2024 Debut

While production may have been halted due to the ongoing WGA strike, a new logo for The Penguin has today found its way online ahead of The Batman spin-off's debut on Max sometime next year. Check it out!

Despite the massive changes made to the DCEU DCU by Warner Bros. Discovery and DC Studios, The Batman franchise is set to continue. We don't know whether Matt Reeves' ambitious plan for several villain-led Max TV shows will come to fruition, but The Batman II has been confirmed, as has The Penguin.

Now, a new logo for the spin-off series has been unearthed on its Max landing page.

It doesn't reveal much, or anything at all, but is very much in line with The Batman's logo. That was to be expected, though we wouldn't be surprised if this is a placeholder until something a little more unique is created for the iconic villain's first solo outing. 

Production has been halted on The Penguin due to the ongoing WGA strike and more than 50 days into that, there's still no end in sight. Whether that will result in a significant delay to this series is unclear but it's almost certainly led to work on plans to expand the Bat-Verse being halted.

In terms of plot details, very little is known about the series. However, we expect it to follow Oswald Cobblepot's rise to power in Gotham, establishing him as the city's new crimelord ahead of The Batman II; whether he'll be that sequel's big bad obviously remains to be seen, especially with The Joker locked up in Arkham.

Lauren LeFranc serves as The Penguin's writer, executive producer, and showrunner, while The Batman director Matt Reeves executive produces as well. 

Colin Farrell, meanwhile, reprises his role as "Oz" and will also be joined in the series by Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone, Clancy Brown as Salvatore Maroni, Theo Rossi, Michael Zegen, James Madio, Scott Cohen, Rhenzy Feliz, Michael Kelly, Shohreh Aghdashloo, and Deirdre O’Connell.

The Batman II is set to be released in theaters on October 3, 2025, and The Penguin will likely premiere on Max sometime in 2024.

The Godfather logo combined with The Batman

@ProfessorWhy - Inspiration from "The Batman", 100%. The Godfather? 0%. Nothing about this logo stands out from taking inspiration from The Godfather. I don't know how you looked at a stylized "G" and thought, "Yep, totally Godfather".

@sully - by mentioning the G you've told me you knew exactly what I was talking about. Go take a warm bath and relax

@ProfessorWhy - Because the "G" is the only outlier in the entire logo. Its basic logic, my guy. You've made no point that needs proving, instead you choose to be a condescending prick for no reason. You've only shown how out of touch you are. I bet you're real good at picking out a square amongst circles, too. Congrats, big brain.

Gunn’s going to try block as many The Batman projects as possible because it’s going to make whatever he’s doing look like ass water in comparison.

It might be good and I'll check it out, but DC's priorities are all over the place. With all the characters they have, Penguin?

This was the logo they used in the promo spot. But I heard the project has been shelved. Just waiting for The Batman part II to be shelved now, too.

@ObserverIO - The Flash should have been shelved.
FireandBlood

@ObserverIO - They need to be shelving Gunn’s DCU and abandoning all silly aspirations of building their own MCU.

@ObserverIO - Not shelved, on hiatus because of the writer's strike. The show is already well into shooting, it won't be cancelled, maybe shortened to meet the release date.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 6/22/2023, 7:09 AM
@Repian - Or reshot. It's ironic that the whole Eric Stoltz thing was a running joke in the film. Because the version of The Flash that we saw, with Ezra Miller, should have been the bootleg.

ObserverIO - 6/22/2023, 7:09 AM
@PlusUltra - Either or. But pick one and commit.

Looking forward to this. Farrell did a stellar job in The Batman.

I don’t really go for these kind of shows but as it is a spin off of a film I really like then I’ll give it a look.

@ObserverIO - And this 👆 is what I’m talking about. The DCEU/DCU has the opposite effect.
Repian
Repian - 6/22/2023, 6:24 AM
@PlusUltra - Also, I think Matt Reeves' Bat-universe will have a total of three parts. And between movies, one or two Spin-Offs.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 6/22/2023, 7:32 AM
@PlusUltra - And I agree. This is how you do a cinematic universe.

Unpopular opinion: this show and The Batman 2 should have been canceled to create room for the new DCU.
FireandBlood
FireandBlood - 6/22/2023, 6:33 AM
@Unites - Cancel their only successful franchise to create room for a rebranding of one of the worse performing franchises in history

@Unites - What? Lol! Why the [frick] would they do that? Their The Batman series is literally the only thing making them money right now.
