In both the US and the UK, The Penguin generally adheres to a weekly episode release timetable. But, it’s worth noting that there’s a slight modification in the schedule: there’s a gap between the initial episode and the subsequent ones.

The premiere of the show will be broadcast on HBO and Max in the U.S. on Thursday, 19th September. The second episode will follow a week later, on Sunday, 29th September. Afterwards, new episodes will come out every week, all airing on Sundays.

In the UK, new episodes are being broadcast simultaneously with the U.S., causing a delay of one day due to time zones. Consequently, the premiere episode will debut on Friday, 20th September, and subsequent episodes will be shown every Monday.

What is The Penguin about?

The Penguin will reunite fans of The Batman with Colin Farrell’s Oz Cobb, AKA The Penguin.

The show explores Gotham’s criminal underworld more extensively, as Oz strives to rise to the top. Meanwhile, viewers can expect a confrontation between Oz and Sofia Falcone, played by Cristin Milioti, who is the daughter of Carmine (portrayed by John Turturro) and has just been discharged from Arkham Asylum.

Earlier, during his discussions about the series, Farrell mentioned that upon wrapping up filming: “The show is extremely grim, Penguin. It’s very dark indeed. I’m relieved to be done with it, and I enjoyed every moment of it, but truthfully, I was eager to escape from the makeup chair when we completed.

In this film, I truly immersed myself in the character, delving deep into their core, much like peering beneath the hood, a phrase commonly used in the U.S.

Starting from Friday, 20th September 2024, you can catch “The Penguin” on both Sky Atlantic and NOW. For details on how to subscribe to Sky TV, please explore further information.
