Colin Farrell returns in the spinoff series "The Batman".

The Penguin | Official Trailer | Max

September isn't too far away, and The Penguin, Max's The Batman spinoff TV series, seems to know it. A new trailer for the show gets right to it in a way previously teased avoided: This is a mafia set in the dark and oily Gotham City showcased in Matt Reeves' Robert Pattinson-led 2022 film.

Batman star Colin Farrell now has an entire cast to strive against in his quest to fill the power vacuum left by the death of boss Carmine "The Roman" Falcone – and it's a who's who of Gotham City mob figures from the most influential mob-focused Batman books. Clancy Brown plays Salvatore Maroni, the guy who threw acid in Harvey Dent's face; Michael Kelly plays Johnny Viti, Falcone's nephew and enforcer introduced in Batman: Year One; and Michael Zegen plays Alberto Falcone, a major player in Batman: The Long Halloween. Finally, Cristin Milioti plays a woman who appears to be Oswald "Oz" Cobb's greatest rival for power, Sofia "Gigante" Falcone, daughter of The Roman.

We'll see who comes out on top — and if Batman has anything to say about it — when The Penguin premieres on streaming service Max in September.
