Skipping the in-universe cameo made sense given the state of Gotham
HBO ’s The Penguin only exists because The Batman was wildly successful and audiences really gravitated to Colin Farrell ’s against-type rendition of Oswald Cobblepot , or Oz Cobb as he’s known in this universe. So why isn’t Robert Pattinson ’s caped crusader anywhere to be found in the show’s eight-episode tour of Gotham’s warring criminal underground? He had bigger fish to fry, suggests the director behind the upcoming The Batman Part II.
That’s a sensible enough in-universe explanation for why, throughout all of The Penguin’s twists, turns, and criminal empire scheming, Bruce Wayne never drops in on Cobb to try to rein things in. Showrunner Lauren LeFranc previously suggested that excluding Batman helped keep the focus on the “grit and muck and grime” of Gotham’s city streets and Penguin’s journey to claw his way up through its ranks. But that doesn’t mean a Pattinson cameo was never being considered.
