The Transformation
The cosmetics made him appear substantially overweight, with visible scars and a receding hairline, precisely like in the 2022 action movie starring Robert Pattinson . His face seemed exactly as it did in that movie.
The Unrecognizable Part
Even though the makeup, one could tell apart the celebrity, but what made Farrell so elusive? It was the double chin and pockmarked skin, thanks to face prosthetics. Along with that, the cosmetic team has also worked on the dark locks and the bushy eyebrows.
The Outfit
He had the ideal attire to embody The Penguin, wearing a purple jacket over a white dress shirt. And then, black dress shoes finished off Colin’s ensemble, which was held up by matching suspenders.
Something Exciting On The Way

Unexpected Offer
At the Gala Event , Farrell stated, “The only thing I had an idea was that I wasn’t nearly getting to explore the character as much as I wanted to.” And to his surprise, the appearance was so hyped up that he got the chance to do a separate series.
Always Wanted More
The actor wasn’t able to move on from his character and wanted more scenes; he said, “There was all this extraordinary work done by [makeup artists] Mike Marino and Mike Fontaine and his team, and I just thought it was the tip of the iceberg, pardon the pun, that we were getting to do the six or seven scenes that we did in the film. I was grateful for them, but I wanted more,”
The Extended Series Idea
He reported, “Honest to God, any thought I had about an extended series was to do with Mike Marino’s work. I knew there was so much to do with it — age it up, age it down. He’s just such a genius, Mike, so it was his work that was the inspiration.”
