The Penguin will return in The Batman 2, but Colin Farrell was just happy to be done with him after shooting his spinoff show

The Penguin finally premieres on Max in exactly one week, on September 19. We're now learning more and more about the process of shooting the long-anticipated series, and it appears that Colin Farrell didn't have a super great time under all the prosthetics and makeup.

As part of Total Film's new issue, the actor explained the highs and lows of returning to Gotham as Oswald Cobblepot, and while he praises the character that's been created by Matt Reeves and showrunner Lauren LeFranc, he also was happy to leave him behind.
