# “The Penguin” Sets the Stage for a Seedy Gotham
The latest teaser for the upcoming HBO Max series “The Penguin” unveiled during the official launch of Max promises a continuation of Gotham’s seedy criminal underworld. Though Batman himself remains absent from the teaser, the frantic scenes of back-alley violence and clandestine deals suggest that the city is still in the throes of lawlessness. Even the most notorious villains seem to live in constant fear for their lives.
At the center of the chaos is the Penguin, played by Colin Farrell, who senses an opportunity to secure true greatness for himself amidst the turmoil. The series also stars Cristin Milioti, Rhenzy Feliz, Michael Kelly, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Deirdre O’Connell, Clancy Brown, and Michael Zegen. Fans of the comic book series will undoubtedly appreciate these high-profile actors coming together to portray some of their favorite criminal masterminds.
“The Penguin” is just one of many upcoming original shows coming to HBO Max, which officially launches on May 23rd. With such high-profile projects in the pipeline, it seems the streaming service is shaping up to be a major player in the ongoing streaming wars. Whether you’re a fan of DC Comics or just love a good crime drama, “The Penguin” promises to be must-watch television when it debuts in 2024.
