Will There Be Batman Cameo In Colin Farrell’s The Penguin? Here’s What Creators Have To Say

As a dedicated fan who has followed the Batman saga through thick and thin, I must admit that the upcoming series The Penguin has piqued my interest more than ever before! While the prospect of Robert Pattinson’s cameo in the show initially sparked my curiosity, Matt Reeves’ recent statement seems to have squashed those hopes.


The Penguin television series, eagerly awaited by viewers, is soon set to air. Although fans are excitedly speculating about Robert Pattinson making an appearance in the dark and crime-ridden show, the creators have made it clear that they have no such plans at present.

Lately, during discussions on the Max series, Matt Reeves (also known as the executive producer of The Penguin) hinted at the possibility that fans of Batman and enthusiasts alike might catch a glimpse of him in the forthcoming escapade.

In an interview with SFX magazine, director Matt Reeves of the 2022 movie “The Batman” indicated that he doesn’t sense a lack of any essential element, which could imply that a cameo by Batman in “The Penguin” is unlikely.

During our continued discussion in the interview, the director of Planet of the Apes emphasized that the upcoming series would build upon the climactic events from The Batman’s final scenes.

Afterward, he further explained that the world viewers will experience will mirror what’s shown in the movie. He emphasized that audiences will undoubtedly feel the influence of characters like Batman, Riddler, and the events depicted in the previous film.

Matt Reeves also mentioned that the series will begin exactly where the movie left off.

Speaking with an outlet, the showrunner of “The Penguin,” Lauren LeFranc explained that whereas the movie presented Batman’s perspective of overseeing the city from above to safeguard it, in “The Penguin,” we find ourselves amidst the city streets, immersed in the dirt, filth, and grime. From this perspective, Oswald Cobblepot (Penguin) is gazing upwards, yearning to ascend and reach the pinnacle of power.

Matt Reeves and his producing partner Dylan Clark have proposed an exciting expansion for the world of The Batman, encompassing both films and television series. Buckle up once more as you’ll be embarking on another thrilling adventure when The Batman 2 is released in cinemas in 2026.

In the movie set to hit theaters on October 2, 2026, Robert Pattinson, known for his portrayal of both Bruce Wayne and Batman, will once again step into those roles.

As an utterly captivated fan, I can’t help but zero in on the captivating character of Oswald Cobblepot, brilliantly brought to life by the talented Colin Farrell. Farrell’s portrayal was nothing short of mesmerizing in the initial chapter of Matt Reeves’s cinematic take on The Dark Knight.

The Penguin will premiere on HBO and Max in September.
