Batman spin-off The Penguin has finally landed in the UK and viewers have hailed the series as a ‘masterpiece’. Starring Colin Farell as the titular mobster, the new DC Studios drama is a continuation of Matt Reeves’ 2022 reboot The Batman, which saw Robert Pattinson don the iconic cowl as the Dark Knight.

The director wants to explore every alley of the Batman mythos in his Epic Crime Saga.

The helmer breaks down his journey on the show, which may (or may not) have begun when he wrote to Reeves: "this was the superhero movie I wanted to see right now."
