So he’s had quite a good time working under Matt Reeves, which can only be good for a series the director will oversee. And so, it’s exciting.” Farrell added he “only got a taste of it on The Batman film” in his performance, which added up to “five or six scenes or something” — most of which saw the future Penguin get roughed up or looked down on as a joke by his superiors in the underworld, namely Falcone. Nevertheless, he “had so much fun.”

And to be able to find that location, dig around it would be fun.” “It’s 50-50, maybe 49-51 in his favor.” His violence is apparent, his propensity for violence and his ability to use it as a tool is apparent, but [also] to see we all have soft spots.

Colin Farrell talks about getting panic attacks while cave-diving in Thirteen Lives, playing Penguin in The Batman, and dealing with being offered ...

“I do remember the first time I got a script where I was playing the father of someone who was 20 and I thought, ‘f*** you’. I realised it was an absolutely inappropriate offer to make.” But Colin has no complaints about ageing, both as a person and as an actor. With that in mind, the cave-diving was a bit of a stretch because I can’t ever say I was fully comfortable doing it. I am having fun in my 40s as a man, a dad, and an actor. I was buried, nowhere to be found and there was no threat of danger or death, the way there was in Thirteen Lives. So definitely the Penguin was easier.” We would swim down about 20 feet into this big pool and you’d swim into a hole in the wall to get in the cave. Between Thirteen Lives, The Batman, and his upcoming film The Banshees of Inisherin, Colin is almost exclusively playing non-glamorous middle-aged men now. Apart from the efforts of the locals and the Thai government, a key role in the rescue was played by British and Australian cave divers, played by Colin, Viggo Mortensen, Joel Edgerton, and Tom Bateman in the film. At the end of the day, it’s not a documentary and you are telling a story so there are some assumptions made. And in order to look like the scarred, overweight Penguin, Colin was buried in heaps of makeup and prosthetics. Whereas, I was comfortable doing the Penguin underneath the prosthetics. In an exclusive chat with Hindustan Times, Colin talks about Thirteen Lives, playing Penguin, and coming to terms with being ‘middle-aged’. Also read: Colin Farrell describes The Batman script as ‘dark, moving, gorgeous’ “I don’t know if I have a preference but I feel that we explored both avenues and processes, where we had the script and we also had Rick Stanton and Jason Mallinson the whole time while we shot.

Farrell calls playing The Batman baddie "a joy," says he'd like to be in the sequel.

Still, even if Farrell’s Penguin doesn’t get his Big Bad moment on the big screen, he’s due to have his starring moment in the upcoming Penguin HBO Max series. The role of the Joker has long been mythologized to torment actors, placing them in their darkest headspace and leaving a stain on their very souls. This particular Batman (as opposed to the other one) will indeed be coming back for a second film, so Farrell’s chances are high.
