Colin Farrell keeps the door open for a season 2 of Max’s acclaimed Batman series, “Penguin.” The Irish actor, who plays criminal Kingpin Oswald “Oz” Cobb, took home Screen actor Guild Award On Sunday for outstanding performance by a male actor in a TV movie or a limited series.
“I go off (off) and agree with what (executive producers) Matt Reeves and Dylan Clark and Lauren Lefranc have said, which is, if they came up with an idea for a second season that was really strong, and we felt all Forced to continue exploring the nature of Oz in that way, then surely, Farrell told reporters after his victory for “The Penguin” at the Sag Awards in the virtual press room.
“It all has to tie in (to the Batman world),” he said, referring to his titular character introduced in Reeves 2022 “The Batman” movie with Robert Pattinson as Caped Crusader. He is confirmed to return as oz In the big screen follow -up, “The Batman 2.” “Matt Reeves is the goat in this world by Gotham right now … He is the boss and he established this new vision of Gotham with the Batman movie.”
“It must work in a parallel way,” theoretized Farrell about the “penguin”, which is originally invoiced as a limited series, would continue. “So we’ll see what Matt Reeves and the rest of them can come up with. But yes, I would be open to it safely. “
Since “The Penguin” ended in November, Farrell has been at an award ceremony and collected awards from the Golden Globe Awards, Critics Choice Awards and Saturn Awards, among others. He trivialized the importance of the rare price for a genre show.
“Maybe I’m just too self-centered because I don’t feel the importance of representing the genre that this is AF-Crossover world from mass in comic book,” Farrell said, citing that I was a fan of other Batman properties like “Batman ‘ 66 “comics.
“To be honest with you, I do not feel that I set any benchmark. I feel that what I do is join an already established stammer of wonderful actors to create fantastic characters, and that is just another interpretation but all this is wonderful, man. None of us really saw any of it coming … It’s very, very rewarding. “
If and when the decision is made to bring the “penguin” back (and it remains to be seen), it will force HBO to move its eligibility from limited series to drama series, which is a much more competitive category. But the move is not outstanding – FX’s “Shōgun” was initially invoiced as a limited series before it was changed to drama and HBO’s “Big Little Lies” competed in drama categories after it won several Limited Series Awards for Season 1.
Earlier in the evening, presenter Jamie Lee Curtis revealed that Farrell had given her covid on the Golden Globes after he announced him as the winner.
When he went on stage to accept the award, Farrell confirmed that to be true: “Guilty as charged! But Brendan Gleeson F ** King gave it to me! So I just spread love. “
