Yes my son is disabled, but I think he's perfect as he is: Infamous hellraiser COLIN FARRELL reveals his boy James helped him get sober


When people run into Colin Farrell and his elder son James near Colin's home, they sometimes approach to ask what's wrong with the young man. 'And I always tell them about it,' Colin says.

He’s had a stellar movie career, most recently with 2022’s The Banshees Of Inisherin, which was nominated for nine Oscars, and he’s currently riding high on TV in the title role of the acclaimed but violent Batman spin-off The Penguin, in which he plays Oswald ‘Oz’ Cobb, the brutally disfigured mobster who reinvents himself as a super-villain. He’s ready to get out of the house and go and have a bigger life than we can afford him, by having a sense of community he feels connected to, by going out every day, going to the supermarket and doing the shopping, going to the beach, museums, the movies, all that kind of stuff. It was his and Kim’s horror at the lack of suitable facilities that inspired him to found the Colin Farrell Foundation, an organisation dedicated to helping families who have members with intellectual disabilities.
