Colin Farrell is unrecognisable as The Penguin on the set of the upcoming Batman movie

James Fenton

If Colin Farrell was seen walking around Dublin in this get-up, nobody would even bat an eyelid.

Production of the upcoming Batman movie titled, er, The Batman, is well underway and fans have been given a glimpse of Colin Farrell in character as iconic villain The Penguin. The Castleknock man has been pictured on set looking a little bit different to usual, with slightly less hair on top and, well, a face that’s pretty much unrecognisable.

It’s a testament to the movie’s make-up department that Colin Farrell has everyone on social media squinting their eyes. Be honest, would you have known it was him? Probably not…

That’s quite a transformation. Of course, people already got a glimpse of Farrell as The Penguin when the trailer for The Batman was released back in August.

You’ll be able to see the final product when The Batman hits our screens in March, 2022. Along with Farrell, the movie will also feature Robert Pattinson as the eponymous hero, as well as Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman and Paul Dano as The Riddler. Another Dubliner, Barry Keoghan, will also make an appearance as Stanley Merkel, an officer in the Gotham City Police Department.
