MOVIE NEWS – We find several hints in the plot of the first season of The Penguin, which makes it likely that Matt Reeves’ Batman universe is heading in this direction…

It really seems like The Penguin series has set the stage for the Court of Owls secret society to appear in Matt Reeves’ next Batman movie! This is important news because they are considered to be one of the best Batman comic villain groups of the last 15 years. Director Matt Reeves has confirmed that the script for the sequel has been completed, and there are hints of it in The Penguin series.

Who does the Court of Owls consist of?

The first part of The Batman was a great success with its dark, violent and realistic approach, and expectations for the sequel are also high. Court of Owls is a 2011 story created by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo in which Batman follows a mysterious and powerful secret society that has controlled Gotham City for centuries.

The Court of Owls is a shadowy organization comprised of members of the city’s wealthiest and most powerful families who use skilled and deadly assassins to destroy those who threaten their control over the city. The saga was a resounding success due to its dark tone, exploration of the Gotham mythos, and the introduction of an enemy who seemed always to be one step ahead of the hero, rethinking many concepts of the Batman mythology.

What signs can we find in The Penguin series?

Cristin Milioti, who will play Sofia Falcone in the Penguin series, talked about the plot of the series and how important her character will be in the power struggle in Gotham. This power struggle may be directly related to the Court of Owls, as this organization has maintained invisible control over the city for years, controlling even the most powerful crime families. Sofia could be one of the key characters in uncovering the true influence of the Court, which will be explored later in the next Batman movie.

Another suspicious sign is nothing more than changing the title character’s name.

In the Penguin series, Oswald Cobblepot’s name was changed to Oswald “Oz” Cobb. According to some fans, this may refer to one of the Court of Owls assassins, William Cobb. William Cobb is one of the Court of Owls’ deadliest assassins, serving the organization for decades.

Some believe that Oswald’s last name change was related to his association with the Cobb family and the Court. Although series director Craig Zobel did not confirm this theory, he admitted that he does not know all the details of Matt Reeves’ plan, which only fueled fan speculation.

The introduction of the Court of Owls in the Batman sequel would be a logical step, as it could explore the city’s corruption and Bruce Wayne’s family secrets more deeply. The film is expected to be released in cinemas in 2025; until then, fans can follow The Penguin series on the Max platform.
