With The Penguin streaming now all eyes are on Colin Farrell's scheming Oz Cobb. While the new series is not a part of James Gunn's relaunched DC Universe, it is a spin-off of Matt Reeves' 2022 film The Batman, centred on the infamous supervillain and criminal mastermind – you can read our The Penguin review here.

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.

Sofia Falcone (Cristin Milioti) enters the frame behind an oblivious Oswald “Oz” Cobb (Colin Farrell). He’s too busy spinning a yarn to the Falcone family’s new leaders to notice Sofia stalking him in the background.

The Penguin actor Cristin Milioti may play Sofia Falcone in HBO's The Penguin series, but as a kid she played a much different Batman rogue.

Cristin Milioti talks about the preparation she did to get into character as Sofia Falcone while chatting with THR at 'The Penguin' premiere. Plus, she calls Colin Farrell an "incredible" scene partner.
