Colin Farrell showed off his buff physique while jogging shirtless through a park in Beverly Hills, California on Monday.
The 45-year-old Irish actor donned just a gray hat, bandana around his wrist, and mini purple running shorts as he exercised in Coldwater Canyon Park.
After he put in his miles, Farrell took a break and stretched at his car.
The Hollywood star is enjoying some downtime before his highly-anticipated superhero movie “The Batman” premieres in March 2022. He plays villain Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, aka The Penguin, and is completely unrecognizable under heavy makeup and prosthetics.
Robert Pattinson portrays a younger version of the Caped Crusader, Zoe Kravitz takes on the role of Catwoman, Paul Dano plays The Riddler, and Jeffrey Wright is police commissioner Jim Gordon.

On a recent episode of the podcast, “Happy, Sad, Confused,” Farrell confirmed he’s only in DC Comics movie for a few scenes. “I’m only in it for five or six scenes, so I can’t wait to see the film because it won’t be ruined by my presence,” he said.

The “Minority Report” star added, “Really, it’s a freebie for me. I’ll get a little bit uncomfortable for the f—ing nine minutes I have, and then the rest of it, I cannot wait to see how he [director Matt Reeves] brought this world to life, because the sets were extraordinary, the production design [was] extraordinary, his use of music and sound will be extraordinary, and as you said the cast, from, all of them, Robert [Pattinson] and Zoe [Kravitz] to – yeah, extraordinary cast.”

“Mike Marino is a genius,” Farrell said of the film’s makeup artist. “He’s an absolute and veritable genius. And that word gets thrown out a lot, but he is a drawing, sculpting, shaping genius. And he created this visage for the Penguin. I mean he and Matt talked about what physically the character stature would be, and I had been quite big for ‘The North Water’ and I didn’t want to naturally go big again cause I had a few little health things as a result of ‘The North Water’ and I was just like, f-ck, this acting thing ain’t this important. I know the top actors that go up and down, and God bless them, I wish them good health. But for me, I think ‘The North Water’ is the last time I’ll go up that much. So, we decided on a fat suit.”
For the DC Comics film, Farrell underwent hours of makeup and prosthetics to transform into the villain.
