Oscar-nominee Colin Farrell looked completely unrecognisable in snaps from the set of The Batman spin-off TV series, The Penguin. Reprising his role as Oswald Cobblepot, or the titular Penguin, Colin, 46, donned a number of prosthetics on his face just as he did in in the 2022 film starring Robert Pattinson.The prosthetics gave the actor the appearance of facial scars and a receding hairline, and made him look heavier than his usual slim figure. Dressed for the role, Colin sported a purple blazer and white shirt, which were paired with black trousers and matching suspenders.The look was completed with a pair of black shoes and a brown leather coat.
Not much is known about the storyline of the TV series, but it's believed to pick up where The Batman ended, with the city of Gotham thrown into chaos following the death of crime boss Carmine Falcone.The Penguin will consist of eight episodes, and it remains unclear when the show will release. It comes after Colin received an Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his role in 2022's The Banshees Of Inisherin.This is the first time Oscar nomination for the veteran actor. OddsChecker currently has him as third favourite to win, with Austin Butler and Brendan Fraser ahead of him.
And while Colin missed out on the BAFTA, which went to Austin for his role as Elvis Presley instead, he did receive the Golden Globe award for Best Actor In A Comedy Or Musical. Over the years, Colin has excelled in a variety of genres. He’s starred in action films such as Minority Report, dramas like Saving Mr Banks, comedies such as Horrible Bosses and Yorgos Lanthimos’ dark romance hit The Lobster.

Colin Farrell is hitting the red carpet with his son!
It’s the weekend of the 2023 Academy Awards and we’re making our final predictions in all of the categories.
“Everything Everywhere All at Once” swept all the major guild awards, the first time that grand slam had happened in a decade and only the fifth time in history, the suspense seemed to drain out of the 95th Academy Awards. After all, how suspenseful can it be if everything goes to “Everything?” But it’d be a mistake to think that Sunday’s show won’t be a nail-biter in many ways.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor I was clean-shaven when I left for Palm Springs for Christmas. A few days later, I arrived back at home in Los Angeles with a beard. I didn’t plan on my new hirsute look. I just don’t like shaving. I avoid it when I can. But as my beard grew in, my friends started telling me they liked it. They remarked at how “distinguished” it looked with its mix of ginger and white. I worried I might appear older than I am, but my cousin insisted that she thought it actually made me look younger. I decided to go for a trial run by keeping the beard for the Palm Springs International Film Festival’s opening night gala red carpet. I needed to see how it looked on camera. The beard was a hit. Austin Butler told me he liked it and so did Colin Farrell. A few days later at the Golden Globes, Andrew Garfield said, “The beard looks nice. The ginger and white is like a Prince Harry thing you’ve got going on.”
