Colin Farrell happy to star in movie that his kids ‘can actually see’

Colin Farrell has revealed that he’s happy to have worked on a film that his two kids, Henry and James, can actually see.

The Dubliner stars as powerful and mysterious wizard Percival Graves in J.K. Rowling’s Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them – and is more than happy that he took on the role.

“It’s kind of nice that I’ve done something that my boys could actually see,” he said.

The actor admitted that his sons may not want to see the film or even like it, but said that’s fine.

“I mean they may not want to right now or like it,” Colin told Collider.

“And that’s fine also, but J.K’s imagination is obviously just an extraordinary, extraordinary thing.”

The 40-year-old also admitted that he has never done anything like Fantastic Beasts – but had a lot of fun anyway.

“I mean its enormous amounts of fun. I have a f***ing wand. I mean seriously, seriously, I’m not even joking,” he laughed.

“I’ve done plenty of things that have been you know, more that have had a strain of despondency or pain or loss or violence and all that.

“So, this feels very different from anything I’ve done,” he added.

Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them hits Irish cinemas on November 18.
