Matt Reeves says The Penguin Season 2 is being discussed
Matt Reeves spoke about The Penguin Season 2 to Variety at the red carpet for Emmys 2025. Responding to a question on when the next chapter of the Colin Farrell-led show is coming out, the filmmaker revealed, “We’ll see. We’re just in the beginning of thinking about it. But obviously, we’re super excited about what we’re able to do, and if we can do more, if it can be as good or better than the last season, which is I think a tall order given the incredible work we already did. We definitely would love to.”
When asked what the plans were to top the first season of the series, Reeves revealed that there were discussions about it with Lauren Lefranc, the showrunner of The Penguin. “We’re in discussions. Lauren is thinking hard and we’re talking, so we’ll see.”
Reflecting on the Emmy nominations that The Penguin garnered this year, Reeves said, “It’s an incredible honor. We are incredibly excited.” He noted that it would have been “insane” to predict the nominations. Reeves then lauded the cast and the crew for the first season. “Our passion was in it, but never in our wildest dreams could we imagine it would have been received in the way that it was,” he added
The Penguin has since won several Emmys, including the award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for Cristin Milioti’s performance as Sofia Gigante (née Falcone).
In the same interview, Reeves, who serves as executive producer and a writing supervisor on The Penguin, disclosed that they considered the option of having Robert Pattinson’s Batman / Bruce Wayne appear in the show but ultimately decided against it.
