A man who will gradually become a murderer who spreads terror in Gotham City under the name Penguin (Penguin in OV).

And considering the early stills from the shoot, Colin Farrell once again becomes unrecognizable in the appearance of this key character from the masked outlaw universe. The actor was thus immortalized in a gorgeous purple suit alongside a luxury car of the same color on the streets of the city.
