Despite the show&#8217;s success with critics and fans alike, even she doesn&#8217;t know if there will be a Penguin season 2.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s no official word on anything. I would love nothing more, truly,&#8221; Milioti tells actor Topher Grace in a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DT6U76Tjmex\/?igsh=Z2R3MWY2Y3RtMWIx\" target=\"_blank\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DT6U76Tjmex\/?igsh=Z2R3MWY2Y3RtMWIx\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Deadline<\/a> interview. &#8220;I hope.

Though Sofia Falcone is ultimately the antagonist of The Penguin, Milioti brings a level of righteous intensity and ultimately relatable urge for vengeance that makes her one of The Batman universe&#8217;s best characters.<\/p>\n<p>You may like<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Unfortunately, though Colin Farrell&#8217;s Oz Cobb\/The Penguin does play a role in 2027&#8217;s upcoming sequel <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/the-batman-2-release-date-cast-story-guide\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/the-batman-2-release-date-cast-story-guide\/\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/the-batman-2-release-date-cast-story-guide\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Batman Part II<\/a>, Milioti says Sofia Falcone is &#8220;definitively not in the film, which is a bummer.&#8221; It&#8217;s a bummer indeed, and I&#8217;m certainly feeling the sting of the confirmation that Milioti&#8217;s Sofia Falcone might not get any more screentime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Fans have been vocal about desiring a second season of The Penguin, but it seems we won&#8217;t get many updates on whether it&#8217;s in the cards until after The Batman Part II. The sequel&#8217;s 2027 release date is also complicating matters for DC Studios&#8217; burgeoning DC Universe, which has its own parallel continuity separate from The Batman, as co-CEO <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/james-gunn-confirms-there-wont-be-two-batman-movies-in-the-same-year-meaning-we-wont-see-the-brave-and-the-bold-until-at-least-2028\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/james-gunn-confirms-there-wont-be-two-batman-movies-in-the-same-year-meaning-we-wont-see-the-brave-and-the-bold-until-at-least-2028\/\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/entertainment\/dc-movies\/james-gunn-confirms-there-wont-be-two-batman-movies-in-the-same-year-meaning-we-wont-see-the-brave-and-the-bold-until-at-least-2028\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">James Gunn recently confirmed that they won&#8217;t be bringing in their own Batman<\/a> until after the Robert Pattinson-led movie arrives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">While we wait for The Batman Part II, stay up to date on all the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/upcoming-dc-movies\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/upcoming-dc-movies\/\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/upcoming-dc-movies\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">upcoming DC movies and shows<\/a> that are in the works.<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Bringing all the latest movie news, features, and reviews to your inbox<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cristin Milioti&#8217;s captivating performance as the unhinged Sofia Falcone in The Penguin season one was one of the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":392424,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[96,2839,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-392423","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-movies","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392423"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392423\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/392424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
