Colin Farrell wins third Golden Globe award for The Penguin

Colin Farrell has won his third ever Golden Globe award.

The Irish actor nabbed the gong for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series, or a Motion Picture Made for Television for his role in The Penguin.

The Dublin native was up against fellow Irish star Andrew Scott, who was nominated for his role in Netflix’s Ripley.

This is Colin’s third Golden Globe win, having previously won for his performances in The Banshees of Inisherin and In Bruges.

During his acceptance speech, Colin joked that he had “no one to thank on this one, I did it all by myself!”

He went on to tell the audience how he spent three hours in the make-up chair every day to transform into his character, and said he would be using prosthetics “from here on out”.

“In the morning, I drank black coffee, listened to 80s music, and I became a canvas for that team’s brilliance,” he said.

Colin also gave a shout out to his fellow Irish nominee Andrew Scott, and revealed they worked together on his first film 25 years ago, called Drinking Crude.

He joked that the film can’t be found anywhere, and told the audience: “You can’t even find it on Betamax! It doesn’t exist. But we go back that far.”
