As evidenced by the trailer, the series’ will largely concern the Penguin overseeing his criminal empire as he makes repeated power plays against the Falcone crime family in light of Gotham’ s recent flood problem. He is a seabird, after all. Also of note is Farrell’s improved make-up— his cheekbones are now less prominent, making him look less like Richard Kind and more like a bloated Robert Davi. And is there heat between Oswald and Cristin Milioti’s rival, Sofia Falcone? Out of a cast that includes Clancy Brown, Rhenzy Feliz, Michael Kelly, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Deirdre O’Connell, James Madio, Scott Cohen, Michael Zegen, Carmen Ejogo and Theo Rossi, she gets the most play here.
