DC's Penguin Takes Center Stage with New Gender-Swapped Role and Upcoming Series

Minnie Driver voices a female Penguin in 'Batman: Caped Crusader,' while Colin Farrell's live-action 'The Penguin' series explores Gotham's criminal underworld.

Minnie Driver will voice Oswalda Cobblepot, a female version of The Penguin, in the animated series 'Batman: Caped Crusader.'
The new animated series is set in the 1940s and features significant character reimaginings, including an Asian-American Harley Quinn.
Colin Farrell reprises his role as Oswald Cobblepot in HBO's 'The Penguin,' set to premiere on September 19.
