Such a missed opportunity. Maybe they'll play to Colin Farrell's Irish roots because Penguin is British but...   |

Good question, he’d been perfect casting.

Penguin doesn't have facial hair. DeVito's casting can't be topped.

Serkis is too much of an obvious choice. Farrell (IMO) is the more inspired pick and I think he'll knock it out of the park. Reeves is a solid/smart director and I trust he knows what he's doing here.

Honestly outside of John Turturro and Paul Dano the casting for this movie just reeks of 'meh' to me, everyone is fairly competent but they don't seem like home run choices for their characters, in particular Farrell as The Penguin, Jeffrey Wright as Gordon, and Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman. All might be okay in the end, but I could see them shine better as other DC characters.
Farrell should be John Constantine. Jeffrey Wright should be Hugo Strange. Zoe Kravitz should be Vixen.

Because he's a short fat guy literally nicknamed Penguin? Not that Farrell makes any sense either, but I still don't get this board's love affair with Andy Serkis in the role.  Look, it's a couple of slim built men of average height....and the Penguin. |

DeVito wants to reprise his version of Penguin for a new Tim Burton movie.

I don't know how that would work given the ending of Returns but credit where it's due to DeVito, he's in his 70's and still game to a heavy make-up job when other actors who are younger than him do not have the patience or the tolerance for it anymore.

Well, No Way Home has been able to bring back Dafoe and Molina's respective Spider-Man villains so anything's possible. The bigger question is how much demand there is for more DeVito Penguin. |
