The Penguin: When Episode 1 Releases On HBO & Max & How Many Episodes There Are

The new DC Universe series The Penguin is nearly here, and many have been waiting with bated breath for the moment that it releases on HBO. With Colin Farrell leading The Penguin's cast, the series has been hotly anticipated. Following the events of The Batman, the series is the second entry in Matt Reeves' epic crime saga and promises to show how organized crime in the city will react to what The Riddler has done to Gotham. The Penguin promises to be an exciting and unusual expansion of this new, dark world taken from the pages of Batman comics.
The Penguin has been a longtime foe of The Dark Knight since he was created in 1941, and The Penguin show now has opportunities to introduce other characters into The Batman's world via its exploration of this iconic villain, setting the stage for The Batman - Part II and how its own story will unfold - and who might appear in it along the way. As such, the matter of when the show first hits screens is naturally a topic of much excitement for those eagerly anticipating the upcoming DC release.

With a trailer that teases incredible tension as the Penguin fights against other would-be leaders to take over the city, the series has been described as a superhero take on The Sopranos, with both of these things suggesting each of the eight impending episodes will have major stakes and twists to keep audiences engaged in both the show and its overarching world. The final episode of The Penguin is set to air on November 10, 2024, and promises to give further development and insight into The Batman's universe, setting up for that film's sequel less than a year later.
