Matt Reeves Confirms Talks for Potential Second Season of 'The Penguin'

The HBO series starring Colin Farrell was originally conceived as a limited series but may continue following its critical and commercial success.

Matt Reeves revealed in a recent interview that discussions are underway with showrunner Lauren LeFranc about a possible second season of 'The Penguin.'
The first season, which premiered in September 2024, received critical acclaim, earning a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score and multiple Golden Globe nominations.
While no official confirmation has been made by HBO, Reeves expressed enthusiasm for continuing the story if it can be approached in a meaningful way.
Colin Farrell, who plays Oswald 'The Penguin' Cobb, has expressed hesitancy about returning due to the challenges of the role, including extensive prosthetics.
Reeves is also focused on finishing the script for 'The Batman Part II,' set to begin filming in 2025 and scheduled for release in October 2026.
