The O.G. himself: Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot (The Penguin)
Let's start with the man of the hour, our beloved Oswald Cobblepot, better known as The Penguin. Robin Lord Taylor, our O.G. Penguin, is back to bring his A-game, and we couldn't be more thrilled!
Robin Lord Taylor has been absolutely killing it as the charismatic and cunning Oswald, and we can't wait to see what he has in store for us in The Penguin Season 2. From his spot-on portrayal of Oswald's ruthless ambition to his incredible ability to make us laugh and cringe in equal measure, Taylor has truly made The Penguin one of the most iconic characters in Gotham's history.
The new kid on the block: Colin Farrell as The Penguin (Season 1)
Now, you might be wondering, "Wait, didn't Colin Farrell play The Penguin in Season 1?" You're absolutely right, and we're just as excited to see him return in The Penguin Season 2!
Colin Farrell's take on The Penguin was nothing short of phenomenal, bringing a gritty and menacing edge to the character that we hadn't seen before. With his incredible physical transformation and intense performance, Farrell's Penguin was a force to be reckoned with. And the best part? He's back for more! We can't wait to see how Farrell's Penguin interacts with Robin Lord Taylor's version and what kind of chaos they'll stir up together.
Gotham's finest: The GCPD
No Gotham City story would be complete without our favorite corrupt cops and dedicated detectives. So, let's take a look at some of the cast members who'll be joining The Penguin on his wild ride.
Detective Gordon: Ben McKenzie
Ben McKenzie's James Gordon has been the moral compass of Gotham City since day one, and we're sure he'll continue to be a thorn in The Penguin's side in The Penguin Season 2. McKenzie's portrayal of Gordon has been nothing short of outstanding, balancing the character's unwavering dedication to justice with his own personal struggles.
Harvey Bullock: Donal Logue
Donal Logue's Harvey Bullock is the perfect foil to Ben McKenzie's serious and stoic Jim Gordon. Bullock's rough-around-the-edges attitude and questionable morals make him a fan favorite, and we can't wait to see what kind of trouble he and Gordon get into in The Penguin Season 2.
The rest of the GCPD
Of course, no police department would be complete without a cast of colorful characters. In The Penguin Season 2, we'll also be seeing more of:
- Bullock's partner, Detective Harvey Dent, played by the incredible Cory Michael Smith. We can't wait to see more of this fan-favorite character and his evolution into the iconic Two-Face. - Captain Maggie Sawyer, played by the formidable Patti LuPone. LuPone's Sawyer is a force to be reckoned with, and we're excited to see her clash with The Penguin and the GCPD. - Detective Renee Montoya, played by the talented Victoria Cartagena. Montoya has always been a steadfast ally to Gordon and Bullock, and we're eager to see what challenges she'll face in The Penguin Season 2.

Erin Richards' Barbara Kean has been through the wringer since her introduction as Jim Gordon's love interest. Now, with her own dark past revealed, Barbara is more dangerous than ever. We're excited to see what kind of chaos she'll stir up in The Penguin Season 2.
