After Penguin, Arkham Asylum series rebooted?

More ideas for the Batman franchise. Although the second part of the adventures of Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight has not yet started filming, the spin-off series Penguin – which will be discovered on Max from September 20 – will give more depth to the famous character played by Colin Farrell. .

It has already been confirmed that Batman does not fit into the official canon of the DC Comics production reboot, which is being overseen by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) and producer Peter Safran.

The new label is called DC Elsewords Thus includes independent performances related to the universe of Batman and Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker.

Has the Arkham Asylum series finally been renewed?

And it is through this label that he will continue to expand the Batman franchise, as confirmed by producer Dylan Clark. In the full promotion of The Penguin series, the latter confirmed this “to be continued” Working with director Matt Reeves “Other spin-off series”.

The key word in this short statement is “continue”. Indeed, everything indicates that the duo is working on projects that have already been announced in the past. This could especially be the case with Arkham Asylum or Gotham Central, two spin-offs that were mentioned by HBO later to dedicate themselves to series featuring more important characters from the franchise.

However, one thing seems clear: a second season of The Penguin is unlikely. Conceived as a one-season limited series, the spin-off will no longer be able to count on the availability of its lead actor, Colin Farrell – due to the four hours of make-up required each day of filming.

You can catch eight episodes of Penguin every week starting this Friday, September 20 exclusively on Max.
