Sofia Falcone ’s introduction inThe Penguinhas bring a Batman scoundrel who I think is just as good as Heath Ledger ’s Joker into live - activeness . Set outside James Gunn and Peter Safran ’s mainstreamDC Universeand following on from Matt Reeves’The Batmanfrom 2022,The Penguinhas developed the criminal underworld of Reeves ' darker and granular Gotham City to the extreme point . Focused onColin Farrell ’s Oswald " Oz " Cobb , The Penguinhas slowly been establish us the eponymic baddie ’s rise to power , though there are major obstacles in his way .
Oz Cobb has found himself opposed inThe Penguinby the pre - existingcrime families operating in Gotham City . Most notably , the Maronis and Falcones have been at the core of the serial , with the latter uphold the story ofJohn Turturro ’s Carmine Falcone , who was stamp out by the Riddler inThe Batman . It was a shame Turturro did n’t repay forThe Penguin , but I have enjoyed pick up a young member of the Falcone folk step up . Serdica Falconehas very cursorily managed to become one of the most terrifying , vivid and interesting Batman - related villainsin the Caped Crusader ’s live - action story .
Sofia Falcone Has Taken The Penguin By Storm
Cristin Milioti Plays Sofia Falcone In The Penguin
Sofia Falcone has become one of my favoritecharacters inThe Penguin , especially after episode 4 , " Cent’Anni , " which explore Sofia ’s sentence being incorrectly incarcerate in Arkham Asylum and her blood into shadow . portray by Cristin Milioti , Sofia Falcone has been more pivotal toThe Penguin’sstoryline than she ever was in DC Comics . This rise to stardom has surprised me , give Sofia ’s want of prominence in the funnies , but the small - graduated table , earth - tier nature of the villain convinces me she is perfect forThe Penguin , and could have a immense amount of influence far beyond the serial .

Sofia Falcone’s Impact Has Come As A Huge Surprise
New detail from New York Comic Con have give away that Sofia Falcone ’s fall was inspired by the sister of a celebrated American chairman .

Serdica will gift a meaning problem for Oz Cobb asThe Penguincontinues to unfreeze , especially now that he has taken over her drug schema . For me , Sofia rivals some of Batman ’s most iconic and notable hot - action villains . I reckon she could even knockHeath Ledger ’s Jokeroff the top spot .
Why Sofia Falcone Is Just As Good As Ledger’s Joker (For Very Different Reasons)
Heath Ledger’s Joker Is Widely Regarded As One Of The Best Live-Action Comic Book Villains
Although wildly dissimilar characters , Sofia Falcone and theJoker from Christopher Nolan’sThe Dark Knightare just as good in my mind . The Dark Knight’sJoker has been widely see as perhaps the strongest laughable book movie baddie in history , withHeath Ledger ’s execution earning him a posthumous Academy Award , but Cristin Milioti ’s performance as Sofia Falcone will surely also earn her some accolades . While Sofia ’s villainy stem from her harm and dark origins , the Joker is chaos embody , but both give me that haunted and terrified feeling .
Sofia Falcone made her live - action debut in theGothamseries , where she was play by Crystal Reed , but Cristin Milioti ’s variant of the Hangman has been far more famed .
While Heath Ledger ’s Joker holds a significant place in comic book movie chronicle , Cristin Milioti ’s Sofia Falcone equal him perfectly . She is just as terrific , tactical and intelligent , and just as unafraid of superpower as the Joker fromThe Dark Knight . While the Joker accept crimson and belligerent way to bring down the crime syndicate structures in Gotham City , Sofia Falcone is just as capable of doing this by using just her influence and ill fame . This ca-ca me think that Oz Cobb might not brook a chance in upcoming episodes ofThe Penguin .
