The Penguin midseason trailer promises a 3-way Gotham gang war as Oz unravels

HBO’s The penguin Just released its midseason trailer, teasing an epic showdown between Oz Cobb, Sofia Falcone and the Maronis. The first few episodes chronicled both struggling to take control of the criminal underworld of Gotham after the death of Carmine Falcone. As each other’s biggest competition for the throne, Oz and Sofia will have to face each other – the winner takes Gotham. Episode 4 established Sofia as the heir to the Falcone legacy, with her being the primary living descendant of Carmine. Furthermore, Oz is responsible for both her incarceration and the death of her brother.

When a figurehead like Carmine goes down, there’s bound to be conflict over who gets his piece of the pie. Sal Maroni is ready for his time in charge, while Oz and Sophia want the same. So far, the season has made a better case for the latter two. Oz has something to prove, while Sophia’s revenge and ascendancy are compelling. The trailer sets up the second half of The penguin’s first season, promising a more tumultuous, action-packed conclusion.
