The Penguin showrunner Lauren LeFranc has responded to The Batman star John Turturro's recent claim that he declined to return as Carmine Falcone due to the show's depiction of violence towards women.
Someone that clearly wasn't a fan of the show is John Turturro. In 2022's The Batman, he played crime boss Carmine Falcone. However, in the follow-up series, the actor is replaced by Mark Strong.
