Colin Farrell Gets Into Character in Bosnia

PopSugar — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:30:00 -0700

Colin Farrell is a busy man these days, between filling in for Heath in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus and getting ready for the upcoming No Man's Land, about the 1992-1995 Bosnian War. He still found time to sign some autographs at the Sarajevo airport on Sunday while in town researching his role as a war photographer who has a life changing experience while overseas. Colin may be getting rid of his bad boy ways with such heavy roles, but he still can't seem to give up that scruffy exterior.

Colin Reflects on His Change of Heart

PopSugar — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 16:30:54 -0800

Colin Farrell is sitting pretty in the UK April issue of GQ. The bad boy turned doting dad still hasn't lost his edgy side, and these photos reflect his broody nature. Colin still has a lot to say about the dark periods of life when he was battling addictions to drugs and alcohol, and how lucky he is to have overcome his demons. He said, "I didn't want to die. I just didn't want to live. Well, now I do. I want to live for a long time." Even though he cleaned up his act, Colin hasn't lost his love for skirt chasing — he was shot down trying to pick up a supermodel in NYC just a few nights ago.

Leading Men Suit Up For the Oscars

Molly — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 00:55:02 -0800

Do you like looking at handsome actors in pretty suits? Then last night's Oscars must be right up your alley! Yes, it's true, the men for the most part played it safe but there's no way to complain about seeing the likes of Clooney and Dempsey at their most dapper. Yum. Javier Bardem didn't walk with his girlfriend Penelope Cruz, but he looked confident on his way in to win his little gold man. Check out all the winners here! Johnny Depp is always a favorite so he could have shown up in jeans — no complaints. Sure, they may not be as colorful or exciting (or red!) as all the ladies red carpet looks, but with all these men there's gotta be a little manjoyment for everyone here. It's just a question of which one suits (get it?!) your fancy?

Colin's Painful Honor

PopSugar — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:00:30 -0800

Colin Farrell was feeling gray from his fedora to his vest as he landed in London yesterday. The cigarette hanging out of his mouth is not attractive, but we'll give him a bye after reading his sweet quote in a recent interview about helping to take on Heath's role in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. When asked about the part he will share with Johnny Depp and Jude Law, Colin said,

"It makes me feel uncomfortable to think about it too much and to get into it really here but it's an incredibly painful honor to have, you know, and an honor I wish wasn't bestowed but an honor nonetheless. It's about getting Heath's work out there, get his work out there, he's too good for any of his work not to be seen, you know, and I'm really keen and looking forward to doing it and just doing the best job I can do."

Even bad boy Colin can be humbled from time to time, and it sounds like he's ready to give the film all he can to do justice to Heath's memory.

Colin Farrell Premieres In Bruges and Helps Heath

PopSugar — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 07:05:00 -0800

Colin Farrell looked a little greasy but nicely suited up at the Dublin International Film Festival this weekend to premiere In Bruges. The Irish actor has had a strong film career along with a bad boy reputation that has turned sentimental since having a son. That warmness also comes through in his career as Colin has joined Jude Law and Johnny Depp to keep Heath's Ledger's final film alive. The three actors cast in The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus will play Heath's character in different fantasy worlds. Sound pretty amazing and it sure is wonderful to see how Hollywood rallied together to keep the star's presence alive.

Sugar Bits — Johnny, Jude, and Colin Complete Heath's Final Role

PopSugar — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 09:30:50 -0800

Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell have accepted the touching but difficult task of completing Heath Ledger's final movie, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The three actors will play Heath's character in different fantasy worlds. It's wonderful tribute to a beloved actor's final role. — BuzzSugar
Jennifer Lopez has reportedly reserved a suite at the Long Island hospital where she plans to give birth. The private room has been refurnished and kept off limits to everyone else for over two weeks. We're guessing the hospital setting is just the beginning of the good life for her two little ones. — Page Six
The end may be in sight regarding Heather Mills and Paul McCartney's complicated divorce proceedings. A judge will issue a final settlement ruling within the next few weeks. Hopefully once all the financial arrangements have been reached, the former couple can amicably focus on their daughter Beatrice. —AP
Dancing With the Stars favorite Maksim Chmerkovskiy will be taking a break from the upcoming season of the hit show. The pro dancer may be sitting this one out, but he hopes to be back for future seasons. — People
Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen's sci-fi thriller Jumper managed to hurdle over bad reviews to the top of the weekend box office. Maybe the couple's cuteness factor played a part in raking in $33.8 million. — BuzzSugar

Colin Farrell Is Figuring It All Out In Bruges

Molly — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 08:31:26 -0800

While In Bruges kicked off Sundance with its world premiere, it's still got the rest of the world to meet, including last night's NYC screening. Of course, Colin Farrell was out to show off his film (and his hot accent) though something about that fedora is so not working for me. That being said, he won me over entirely talking about his son last fall and again recently saying, "I really hope if he’s anything of me he’s whatever the best of me is." He also talked about taking a break in his career post-Miami Vice and what that's all meant to him. He said:

“I’m just trying to figure it out...I use work kind of selfishly to try and understand myself and the world around me and all that kind of stuff. I also use myself and the world around me to try and understand the work so it’s kind of mutually generous in that way. I had a chance after ‘Miami Vice’ to take a little time off and I took a little time off. There was no major orchestration and I’m being really genuine because I know it sounds like I’m just saying it for saying its sake, but I never really had a master plan. I’ve just been very lucky and have had a load of opportunities...I just took the time to try and figure out what it all means to me.”

See, he may look all rough and tumble, but Colin seems like a sweetheart deep down. I gotta say, this bad boy gone good thing is totally working for me, even if I am not always loving the look.

Mary-Kate and Colin Kick Off Hot and Freezing Sundance Fun

Molly — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 07:45:00 -0800

Sundance Film Festival officially kicked off last night starting with the screening of Colin Farrell's In Bruges. You know what that means, a couple weeks of some of our favorite movie stars and newcomers all bundled up to brave that f-f-freezing Park City, Utah weather. Mary-Kate Olsen (who looks a lot like Ashley here...why am I so bad at this game these days) was extra smiley out to celebrate the start of the festival — and her bizarre sounding move The Wackness gets its very own Sundance premiere this weekend. Here's the fun part, BuzzSugar and I are headed to Park City, Utah this weekend to join in on the 2008 Sundance fun, see some great movies (and hopefully have some great celebrity sightings). We'll be keeping you updated on all the industry action and of course gossip, so stay tuned!

Celebs Get Their Thursday Night Party On

PopSugar — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 15:00:29 -0800

Paris and Nicky Hilton were out on the town in LA last night (no surprises here), but lots of other stars came out of the woodwork as well. Benicio del Toro and Russell Crowe were among the A-listers who headed to Mr. Chow for a dinner hosted by filmmaker Julian Schnabel. Somehow we can't imagine that Tim Robbins and Oliver Stone had tons to talk about with Paris, but maybe former bad boy Colin still has a soft spot for socialites. Even though it was a big night out in Hollywood, it seems like everyone managed to behave themselves.

Lots more pics including more Paris in her blue dress, Jesse Metcalfe, Benicio Del Toro and Val Kilmer so just

Colin's Nerve Wracking Dream

PopSugar — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 10:29:17 -0800

Colin Farrell took a break from promoting Cassandra's Dream with Woody Allen to explore SoHo in NYC last night. The pair looked a bit unenthused at the premiere the other night, but maybe that's because Colin gets a little intimidated around his director. He said, "I remember once saying, 'Can I get another take?' And he said, 'If you think you can do it better.' And he wasn't being a smart ass. He meant it. I said, 'No, it's fine, actually.' I felt stupid. It was too much pressure."

It's been interesting to learn about Colin's less bad-boy ways, like when he opened up about his son's condition back in October. This week he also talked about how James is improving and they'll be spending the holidays together relaxing and eating with the rest of the family.

Colin and Woody Bring Cassandra's Dream to NYC

Molly — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 13:31:56 -0800

Woody Allen and Colin Farrell looked a little uncomfortable on the red carpet premiere of Cassandra's Dream in NYC last night. Hopefully Colin was realizing what a bad hair decision he has made. For a man that can be so handsome, he certainly hides his hot. The movie looks pretty interesting, but sadly his costar Ewan McGregor wasn't there (he should be more places, shouldn't he?). Maybe even next time the boys come out to show off their movie they can crack a smile or two?

Colin Keeps Up His Charitable Streak

PopSugar — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 05:08:25 -0800

A hairy Colin Farrell took some time to help get ready for the fourth 'Abrakebabra for Childline' day in Dublin yesterday. The charity event will take place on Sunday and is an all-day affair in which every cent earned at any of the Abrakebabra fast food chains will be donated to Childline, a hotline that kids can call for help with their problems. It wasn't so long ago that we only saw Colin as a hard partying bad boy, but now he has become a regular philanthropist doing lots of amazing things. It may not be a holiday over in the UK, but we bet lots of kids in need will be thankful for all of Colin's help this year.

Colin Is Not Afraid of Kindness, Facial Hair

Molly — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 00:01:58 -0700

Colin Farrell showed off lots and lots of hair all over his head at a NYC Borders reading and signing for Click yesterday afternoon. Colin contributed a chapter to the book, which is a collaborative effort benefiting Amnesty International and includes pieces from authors such as Nick Hornby and Ruth Ozeki. I don't know about you, but Colin has totally done a 180 in my mind over the past few weeks. The one time bad boy kinda seems like a total sweetheart these days opening up so heart-melting-ly about his son and engaging with great charities. He's a far cry from 2005 Colin, that's for sure.

Colin Farrell Opens and Softens Up

PopSugar — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 15:32:18 -0700

Colin once had a reputation as a partying bad boy, but now this sobered up lad has shown his sweet side. Last month we heard how generous Colin is when he took a homeless man on a shopping spree, and now he is talking for the first time about his 4-year-old son James, revealing that he was born with a rare form of cerebral palsy called Angelman Syndrome. Colin shows what a doting dad he is and how much he adores his son just the way he is. He said,

”With my son the only time I'm reminded that there is something different about him – that he has some deviation of what is perceived to be normal – is when I see him with other four-year-olds. Then I go “oh yeah” and it comes back to me. But from day one I felt that he's the way he's meant to be.... He took his first steps about six weeks ago and it was four years in the making. All the work is his, he worked his arse off for four years.”

How Colin Deals With Stress

PopSugar — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 09:15:59 -0700

Colin Farrell headed to the airport after an eventful week at the Toronto Film Festival. Besides promoting Cassandra's Dream, he ran into an old friend of his. Apparently Colin reunited with a homeless man whom he had helped win $2,000 back in 2003 when he was filming a movie in Toronto. This time around, Colin took "Stress" (the man's nickname) on a shopping spree and laid down enough money to set him up with an apartment for a year. Colin definitely has a bad boy side to him, but clearly he has a sweet side as well.

TIFF Celebrities Party InStyle

Molly — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 12:41:11 -0700

InStyle Magazine threw a little soirée for all the celebrities in town for the Toronto Film Festival last night. Obviously this brought Paris, in town filming Repo! The Genetic Opera, out of the woodwork in that cute sequins dress LC wore last month. Jessica Alba was in the house showing off her cute, casual look while Jude Law remarkably managed to maintain his hotness. Keep it up, Jude! Finally, hooray for Mark Ruffalo in town for Reservation Road. Not only is he always a treat, but he just announced that he and his wife are expecting a baby girl!

Colin & Ewan Make A Dreamy Dream

Molly — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 00:36:31 -0700

For two very handsome men, Colin Farrell and Ewan McGregor were not living up to their steamy at the Toronto Film Festival premiere of Woody Allen's Cassandra's Dream yesterday. Still with the kinda bad hair we saw in Venice. Blech, at least Ewan doesn't have a goatee. This Woody creation (with no Scarlett in sight!) seems more along the lines of Match Point than, say, Annie Hall - check out the preview here - but come on, there's got to be at least a few smiles with these two on screen.

Cassandra's Dream Floats To The Red Carpet

PopSugar — Mon, 03 Sep 2007 14:14:21 -0700

Woody Allen premiered his Cassandra's Dream in Venice yesterday with the help of his cast members. Colin kept up his scruffy look while Ewan McGregor decided to try out an interesting new hairdo. Sure, they're no Brad and George, but these two look pretty chummy together smiling big on the red carpet. If crime thrillers and bad boys are your thing, you should definitely check out this film when it hits the theaters in November.

Colin Farrell Rough and Rugged

PopSugar — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 23:40:47 -0700

Colin Farrell and his beloved fedora made an appearance at JFK airport yesterday. Colin may feel sexy in his chest bearing hoodie and leather jacket but he could use a few tips from Becks on proper travel attire. Colin has kept a relatively low profile since Miami Vice last summer, but he'll be back to his bad boy ways this fall in the new Woody Allen movie, Cassandra's Dream. Maybe he'll even ditch the fedora and scraggly beard to re-visit his more attractive, red-carpet worthy alter ego.
