Colin Farrell admits he is 'shallow and insecure' as he discusses difficulties playing Batman character The Penguin


Colin talked about his difficulties playing Batman character The Penguin and admitted he is shallow and insecure during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show.

The 32nd series of the hit BBC talk show returns on Friday night with Colin sharing the red sofa with Lady Gaga, Demi Moore, and musicians Jack Savoretti and Miles Kane. A regular on the show, Irish actor Colin, 48, quickly got comfortable and told host Graham, 61, all about his experiences filming Batman spin-off The Penguin, in which he plays the titular villain. Matt Reeves, the film's director, compared the character of Penguin to Fredo Corleone (John Cazale) from The Godfather (1972), due to 'the insignificance that he lives within, in a family that is full of very strong, very bright, very capable, very violent men'.
