Episode 3 of The Penguin premieres later tonight, and HBO has now released some new promo stills spotlighting Oz Cobb (Colin Farrell) and Sofia Falcone (Cristin Milioti) as they lay their plans to establish themselves as Gotham's new crime bosses.

Last week's episode, "Inside Man," saw Oz and Sofia partner up, as "The Hangman" came to realize that she will never be taken seriously by the men who currently call the shots in her late father's organization.

Of course, Oz is also playing his new ally - and we're pretty sure she knows it - so it'll be interesting to see how long they'll be able to co-exist for without turning on each other.

The Penguin has been a big hit with fans, with the series premiere reaching 10.4 million viewers after 11 days, taking The Batman spin-off above all current HBO series except for House of the Dragon and The Last of Us. The second episode attracted 1.6 million viewers - a 17% increase from the premiere.

Check out the new stills at the link below, along with some concept art of Oz in his purple (sorry, plum) suit.

What do you make of The Penguin so far? Let us know in the comments section.

The Penguin also stars Rhenzy Feliz (Victor Aguilar), Michael Kelly (Johnny Viti), Shohreh Aghdashloo (Nadia Maroni), Deirdre O’Connell (Francis Cobb), Clancy Brown (Salvatore Maroni), James Madio (Milos Grapa), Scott Cohen (Luca Falcone), Michael Zegen (Alberto Falcone), Carmen Ejogo (Eve Karlo), and Theo Rossi (Dr. Julian Rush).

The eight-episode DC Studios drama series continues The Batman epic crime saga that filmmaker Matt Reeves began with Warner Bros. Pictures’ global blockbuster The Batman, and centers on the character played by Farrell in the film.

The series is executive produced by Matt Reeves, Dylan Clark, Colin Farrell, Lauren LeFranc, who writes and serves as showrunner, Craig Zobel, who directs the first three episodes, and Bill Carraro. Based on characters created for DC by Bob Kane with Bill Finger, the show is produced by Reeves’ 6th & Idaho Productions and Dylan Clark Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, where Reeves and 6th & Idaho are under an overall deal. Daniel Pipski also serves as executive producer.

I think it’s funny that Penguin found himself a Robin-like sidekick.

@SuperJefe - yeah , the way he even met him was so Jason Todd

I like that he has this protege since it allows us to get more insight into him as a character

He probably seems a bit of himself in Victor especially since they both have disabilities in their own ways.

@TheVisionary25 - I dont think victor makes it out of this show. Penguin gonna need his villain cartharsis. Or maybe victor turns on penguin and runs.
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 10/6/2024, 9:29 AM
@ThePenguin - I could see either happening

Either Victor is killed or Penguin frames him to take the fall for a crime

@ThePenguin - Victor's demise will probably be a big breaking point for Oz

@TheVisionary25 - Some people are saying Penguin takes the name cobblepot and turns on all his poor members. Maybe even takes english accent. I know it sounds kinda silly, but be cool idea imo.

@ItsNotForMeWahh - Fair enough fair enough

@ThePenguin - I don’t see that happening but maybe

Maybe his original family name was Cobblepot and he goes back to it as he gets higher in status & power

@TheVisionary25 - I think he might just get a lot of money and changes his name to cobblepot, and pretends he was always high money. I dont think it will happen but I like the idea of it. Plus be funny him struggling with english accent and going back to his gangster accent lol

@ThePenguin - I liked John Tuturros soft spoken genteel yet still menacing version of the character.

We still have to get to see Mark Strong in the role but I hope it’s consistent with the formers performance (sucks they had to recast due to scheduling but oh well).

@TheVisionary25 - I quite like John Tuturro as his own criminal. He just never felt like falcone you know? However he was great. Mark Strong though, I think will be perfect. I can see him in his pajamas talking to batman on the balcony as his family torn apart. Man id love a long halloween tv show

TheVisionary25 - 10/6/2024, 9:48 AM
@ThePenguin - fair enough

As he was written and directed as that version , I thought Turturro did well in the role

@TheVisionary25 - He did great. I admit I kinda headcanon them as their own crime family, but eh getting hard to now lol. Its interesting they are all dying, I wonder who reeeves will replace them with. Black mask maybe?

TheVisionary25 - 10/6/2024, 9:51 AM
@ThePenguin - that could be cool!!

I feel he would fit in this universe well.

ThePenguin - 10/6/2024, 9:52 AM
@TheVisionary25 - Yeah. They could use rupert thorne too if clayface rumor is true. Though im hoping for freeze.

Is it as good as the Acolyte, though? Really?

I haven't seen one Space Lesbian in any of the trailers or promo materials.

@Batmangina - Why you gotta talk about another show man. Just discuss the show in question
Batmangina

@ThePenguin - Obviously, ThePenguin is going to want to talk about ThePenguin - I doubt your objectivity, sir.

I know Sofia is a twisted serial killer, but Milioti is so good on the role that I'm kinda rooting for her... even more than Oz.
