Le Penguin is now presented as a “limited series” by HBO; Will Batman Part II have a co-director?
The penguin was a huge success when created HBO last year. Return to Gotham City following the attack on Riddler BatmanWe followed Oz Cobb as he climbed the ranks and became a crimelord.
With glowing criticism and high notes, it did not take long before we started to hear chatter on a possible season 2. The series was probably intended for once to fill the gap between Batman And The Batman II part. However, it is not surprising that Warner Bros. Discovery wanted to see again The penguin And make more of this highly sought -after advertising money.
The creatives involved in the series seemed to do more, but the plans could have changed. For what? Well, HBO submitted The penguin In the “Series Limited” category for the next Emmys.
This suggests that the wired network currently does not intend to move forward with a second season; There is nothing to prevent them from going back to the whole line (and the “Series Limited” categories are less competitive), but it could be for better because the show worked so well as a self -contained tale.
Last month, Channing Dungey, Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Group, said, said, “Le Penguin is one of those things where – and it’s interesting, because when you speak with everyone involved, everyone is interested in perhaps revisiting these characters and doing more – it was very designed as a limited series. But I would never say.”
“I think that if we can bring creative stars to align in the right way, and talent is available – because we certainly don’t want to do this without Colin [Farrell] and Cristin [Milioti] And this team – I would say that it is definitely a possibility, but there is nothing in the work at the moment, “ He added.
Manufacturing The penguin Even more improbable season 2 are the continuous delays surrounding The Batman II part. Despite recent reports claiming that the script will be given to DC studios this weekend, it seems that the chances that the following occurs is 50/50.
Speaking in the hot micro, Jeff Sneider shared a theory that filmmaker Matt Reeves could be joined by a co -director to help get The Batman II part through the finish line.
“I mean, I would be surprised if he made the film alone,” The initiate thought. “If he stays on board as director, why is he not conceivable that he can have a co-director? In particular James Gunn. I do not know, it could be someone. I’m going to tell you who goes right there in the wind: Mr. Sam Raimi.”
Given the separate vision of Reeves, he feels like throwing a co -director in the mixture would make this film a complete mess. As impatient as fans Batman Continuation, Why DC Studios does not focus only on The courageous and the fat is difficult to say.
The Batman II part Remains scheduled for October 1, 2027.
