Colin Farrell's Penguin was stopped from featuring in Birds of Prey by Matt Reeves? Margot Robbie reveals

Colin Farrell's transformation for the role of Oswald Cobblepot, better known as the Penguin, in Matt Reeves 'The Batman' was for many people unbelievable. Slathered with layers and layers of makeup and prosthetics, the Irish actor looked nothing like his real self. Nevertheless, his performance in the movie as the iconic Batman villain was widely praised. And Farrell is all set to headline his own spinoff series. And despite what has been happening with Warner Bros Discovery, the multiple cancellations and "restructuring", it appears the series is safe. It also recently found its director in Craig Zobel, known for 'Mare of Easttown'.

Farrell recently spoke to Collider and described the series with adjectives like "tasty" and "unusual". He said, "Shooting here in New York. I think if it goes ahead, I read the first episode, which is just so tasty and so unusual as the character was on the page and what Matt Reeves kind of envisioned when he was thinking of this iteration of the bang up of Oz. So yeah, it’ll be, I think six or eight hours. I’m supposed to read episode two and three within the next week."

He added that while Zobel might be the director, Reeves is still closely involved.

"And just a really good company of people. And Matt Reeves is all over it. And sure Matt is borderline OCD when it comes to his focus and trying to do something new and original and with feeling and aesthetic and all that good stuff. So it would be, I would love, I had such a blast doing that, Steve," he added.
