Bruno Heller created the drama. He executive produces with director Danny Cannon. Warner Horizon Television, DC Entertainment and Primrose Hill Productions produce.
"Pennyworth has been a big hit for us, embraced by critics and fans alike," said Michael Wright, President, Epix. "It was the highest-performing original series ever to premiere on Epix, more than doubling the viewership of the shows that came before it. Bruno Heller, Danny Cannon and WBTV have delivered a brilliant, must-watch series. We can't wait to work with this phenomenal cast and creative team on another exciting season."
