Aside from Farrell, none of the film’s cast has been confirmed to appear in “The Penguin” - notably, the film changed Catwoman’s (played by Zoë Kravitz) backstory to make her the illegitimate daughter to Carmine, giving her and Sofia a connection that doesn’t exist in the original source material. “The Penguin” is one of two spinoffs of this year’s “The Batman” set so far at HBO Max - “The Staircase” showrunner Antonio Campos is currently attached to a spinoff focused on Arkham Asylum. Milioti will play Sofia Falcone, the daughter of Carmine, who was first created by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale for their 1997 comic book miniseries “The Long Halloween.” Previously, the character was played by Crystal Reed on the Fox series “Gotham.” Farrell first appeared as the character in Matt Reeves’ “ The Batman” film, which saw the star don heavy prosthetics to portray the right-hand man of mob boss Carmine Falcone (John Turturro). Milioti is the first new cast member to join Colin Farrell, who plays the DC Comics villain, in the upcoming series, which is currently under a working title. The “How I Met Your Mother” and “Palm Springs” star has joined the cast of HBO Max’s “The Penguin” series. Cristin Milioti is heading to Gotham City.
