Irish actor Colin Farrell has won his third Golden Globe for his lead role in ‘The Penguin’.
Farrell was awarded Best Actor in a Limited Series last night for taking on the character of the Batman villain - the penguin.
He was nominated in the same category as fellow Dubliner Andrew Scott for his performance in 'Ripley'.
Farrell paid tribute to the make-up team who created his iconic look in the TV series, saying “it takes a village” to play roles like this one.
“You all know it takes a village, whether it's on the small screen or the big screen,” he said.
“I'm here on the backs of the talents of so many people through the years.
“Maybe this one more than others, because of Mike Moreno, who designed the makeup his extraordinary makeup team.”
Congrats on your win, Colin Farrell!
