Farrell is ready to play the penguin in The batmanBut from the looks of it, the classic villain won’t be at the center of the plot, as Farrell says he’s just one part of “five or six scenes.”
Commenting on what we can expect from Matt Reeves‘ The batmanFarrell said he is as excited as fans to see the result in theaters. From what he was able to grasp on set, the film has a unique take on the Dark Knight mythology, and Reeves has been cautiously crafting his own version of Gotham City that Farrell is sure to please fans. While talking about the next movie, Farrell jokingly said that in The Batman you could be more successful as you will have less of it. In Farrell’s words:
I’m only in it for five or six scenes, so I can’t wait to see the film because my presence won’t ruin it. It really is a freebie for me. I’ll feel a little awkward for the damn nine minutes that I have, and then the rest, I can’t wait to see how [Reeves] brought this world to life.
