The Penguin is halfway through its run on Warner Bros’ Max streaming network, and Gotham City is up for grabs. As Colin Farrell’s Penguin manipulates the Falcone and Maroni families into orchestrating their own demise, a wildcard has emerged: Carmine Falcone’s daughter, Sofia, played by Cristin Milioti. Episode four of the series, “Cent’Anni,” explores her backstory and reveals the scope of her victimhood and resilience in a way that caught many viewers off guard. The underworld of Gotham City depicted in The Penguin may be devoid of heroes, but the various villains and their tussle over control of the city has viewers choosing sides all the same.
