This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.Previous Oswald Cobblepot actor Danny DeVito discusses his thoughts about The Penguin TV show and Colin Farrell"s depiction of the iconic DC Comics supervillain.
In a new interview with MovieWeb, Danny DeVito, who brought The Penguin to life in Michael Keaton"s Batman Returns, was asked about DC"s HBO drama and Farrell"s portrayal of one of Bruce Wayne"s most classic villains. DeVito had nothing but praise for Farrell and The Penguin series, while he also added that he understood the challenges that came with playing that role, stating the following:
[indent] Oh, Colin"s giving me a run for my money. And it"s totally different. I"ve been watching it. I haven"t watched the whole thing, but I watched most of what was out... and you know, it"s really good.
I understand the trauma of going through, like, hours and hours of makeup, and you"re transforming yourself. It"s different with me, because wherever I go, I"m Oswald Cobblepot, you know, people could see me. You can"t hide me. You know what I mean, that kind of thing. Colin could go anywhere he wants with that makeup and go sit in a restaurant. They wouldn"t go, "Hey it"s Colin Farrell, hey," you know, he doesn"t look anything like what he did in The Penguin. I mean, it"s hard to hide me, even with pounds of makeup as The Penguin.
