SPOILER ALERT! This story contains details from Sunday’s episode of The Penguin on HBO.

Diego Ramos Bechara editor SPOILER ALERT: This article discusses plot points from the series premiere of “The Penguin,” now streaming on Max. The climax of the premiere episode of HBO’s “The Penguin” sees Colin Farrell‘s Oz Cobb being stripped nude and tortured by Cristin Milioti’s Sofia Falcone. Falcone does this because she rightfully suspects Oz is responsible for the murder of Alberto Falcone, who’s her brother — and the son of notorious crime boss Carmine Falcone, who was killed by Paul Dano’s Riddler in Matt Reeves’ 2022 film, “The Batman.” The scene is squirm-inducing and chilling, made all the more grotesque by the fact that Oz is bare and exposed.

Aramide Tinubu “The Penguin” is set one week after the events of Matt Reeves’ 2022 movie “The Batman,” but it would be too simplistic to call it a villain origin story. Instead, HBO’s limited series — created by Lauren LeFranc — revolves around the rise of Oz “the Penguin” Cobb (an unrecognizable Colin Farrell), whose fixation on power blossoms into something so grotesque it becomes uncontainable. A masterful examination of criminality, the show is twisted, disturbing and deeply enthralling.
