Colin Farrell has made a very NSFW admission about his manhood in The Penguin.
Farrell, 48, is currently starring in The Batman spin-off show, and is essentially unrecognisable as Oz Cobb in the HBO TV series - all thanks to seriously impressive prosthetics.
The series has been incredibly well-received, and currently has a near perfect score of 94 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.
Farrell first starred as Cobb in 2022's The Batman, opposite Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz - with his performance in the film also highly regarded.

Journalist Lucy Mangan wrote for The Guardian that as a result of The Penguin, Farrell should 'should soon be swimming in a sea of awards'.
And with the amount of time the Banshees of Inisherin star spends in the makeup chair alone, it would certainly be deserved.
According to reports, make-up artist Mike Marino spent three hours a day on set transforming Farrell's look.
The actor told PEOPLE: "I had a bodysuit, so I was basically covered wrist to ankle. Only things that were me were my hands and feet.

"Everything else, including ears, were pieces. Everything was covered."
"If it wasn't for Mike's design, I'm telling you now, if it was just me with a f*****g cigarette and a top hat and a bit of a limp and an umbrella that was a machine gun, we wouldn't have had the HBO show." he continued.
He added: "Marino is so twisted and brilliant. He was like, 'I made you a penguin penis.' I said, 'Really? They're not even going to see it. I don't know if I want to walk on set with a penguin penis.'

"And he was like, 'No, no, no, dude. It's detachable, it's Velcro. It's got a beak at the end of it.' So I had a penguin penis."
Interesting.
The largest part of his extreme bodysuit went all the way around Farrell's shoulders and back.
He said: "That was kind of the anchor and it came up to the chin. And then the bodysuit would go under it. They were nice enough to give me a hump as well."

He then admitted he was 'never bored' on set despite how long his transformation took, continuing: "I mean, by the time we'd get to two hours and 45 minutes, I'd be a little bit... Because they had to spray paint like seven different pieces, ball cap, wig on top of ball cap, and then they'd get into spraying every little pockmark, every little zit, every little crease, every little scar."
He said that he was amazed when seeing his complete transformation for the first time, adding: "I couldn't believe it, yeah. I'd never done anything like it. You're moving your face and seeing what happens.
"I knew expressions manifested a particular way through the mask and how beautifully it was designed, so I just went for it."
