Milioti discusses her head-turning role as Sofia Falcone in HBO's 'The Penguin.' By James Hibberd Writer-at-Large For Milioti (How I Met Your Mother, Black Mirror), the character represents a longtime goal achieved: Landing a major part in a superhero project.

Sofia’s heightened emotions lead to deadly consequences for the fall guy, set up by Oz when he planted incriminating evidence on him. But just as Sofia’s about to pull the trigger, it’s her uncle Luca (Scott Cohen) who takes out the “rat.

The Penguin, a spin-off of Matt Reeves’ The Batman (2022), is as much a show about the titular character (played by Colin Farrell) as it is about Sofia Falcone (Cristin Milioti), the daughter of deceased mob boss Carmine Falcone.

Cristin Milioti’s Sofia Falcone is the standout villain of Max’s The Penguin. But she started in Batman comics as a mafia enforcer and serial killer the Hangman.

Starring Colin Farrell as Oz Cobb (aka "The Penguin"), the DC Studios series continues filmmaker Matt Reeves' The Batman epic crime saga that began with Warner Bros. Pictures' global blockbuster The Batman. Developed by showrunner Lauren LeFranc, the series centers on the character played by Farrell in the film.

Sofia Falcone is currently stealing the show in HBO's The Penguin, but her comic book history goes back to the 1997 classic Batman: The Long Halloween.

In its second episode, The Penguin waddles toward the pulpy crime show it needs to be.

One of the coolest aspects of the HBO series The Penguin is how it runs parallel to Matt Reeves’ Batman universe without having to directly mention it every other scene. We might see disciples of Paul Dano’s Riddler handing out leaflets,
