We Desperately Need Cristin Milioti’s Sofia Falcone to Meet THIS Character in Robert Pattinson’s The Batman 2
- Cristin Milioti’s casting as Sofia might have raised a few eyebrows when it was first announced, but her performance in the second episode of The Penguin must have silenced all haters.
- Moreover, fans need Sofia to be in the same scene as Selina Kyle played by Zoe Kravitz in The Batman 2.
- The Penguin has managed to amass 5.3 million viewers in just the first four days of its opening.
The second episode of the much-awaited DC series The Penguin has finally hit the streaming platform. Taking the story further, we see Oz getting pulled in two different directions as the Maronis and the Falcones demand different things from the mafia boss. Nevertheless, one standout aspect of the episode has been Cristin Milioti’s introduction as Sofia Falcone.
Daughter of a feared mafia boss, she has grown up with a certain lifestyle and morals that are now questioned at every turn. Her narrative in the public eye is distorted to the point that she is unable to recognize herself.
Sofia Falcone needs to be in The Batman 2
Who thought the beloved Mother on How I Met Your Mother would go on to play a mafia boss’s fierce daughter? We surely didn’t. But looking at Cristin Milioti’s exceptional range as she brings Sofia Falcone alive on screen, we believe it was all meant to be, quite like what Ted Mosby would claim.
Milioti’s casting as Sofia might have raised a few eyebrows when it was first announced, but her performance in the second episode of The Penguin must have silenced all haters. Battling the anxiety of coming back home after all these years and then receiving a very unceremonious welcome, Sofia is losing all confidence. Even though her father, Carmine Falcone, believes in her and stands by her, it’s the cold shoulder of others that puts Sofia down.
Regardless, Milioti is able to balance the decreasing self-esteem with an unwavering belief that keeps Sofia going. The fans recognize the hard work she puts into every scene, garnering long-due credit for her incredible versatility as an actress.
Moreover, fans need Sofia to be in the same scene as Selina Kyle in The Batman 2. Played by Zoe Kravitz, Selina is also the daughter of Carmine Falcone, hence the two sisters can actually come together for a phenomenal scene in the superhero sequel.
While Sofia is one of the legitimate heirs to the Falcone empire, Selina Kyle or Catwoman is the illegitimate child of Carmine Falcone. Various comic books offer a different origin story for the character but she is generally referred to as the daughter of Carmine. Hence, a storyline involving them together would indeed be very interesting to watch.
The Penguin garners great opening viewership
The Penguin has managed to amass 5.3 million viewers in just the first four days of its opening. The spinoff series is inching towards being a massive success for HBO since it marks the highest opening for any show since January 2023. The events of the series pick up after The Batman, hence fans are confident that the movie’s sequel might continue the happenings that we see in the series.
HBO is on a roll with one great project after another. House of the Dragon ended a few months ago with a decent run with another season already on the way. The Last of Us is another HBO property that has exceeded expectations and done quite well for the channel and its streaming platform.
The Penguin airs every Sunday on HBO.
