Colin Farrell is spilling some details about the upcoming movie, The Batman!

While making an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday (January 22), the 43-year-old actor dished about playing the Penguin in the anticipated Matt Reeves-directed film.

“I’m in the process of talking to Matt Reeves, who’s the director, who wrote the script, and who wrote a really beautiful, dark, moving script, really gorgeous,” Colin expressed.

“It’s all very hush hush,” Colin added, “but it’s a really beautiful script that he wrote and he has a real love for it, Matt. So, we’re in the process of finishing designing the aesthetic of the character.”

Colin also talked about the earthquake in Los Angeles, receiving a “black card” to his favorite Kebab shop “Abrakebabra” in Ireland, discovering what his ancestry is after taking a 23 & Me DNA test and his new movie The Gentleman directed by Guy Ritchie.

“They’re sick of me being a bad guy,” Colin adds about his kids knowing him as Penguin, quipping of their real-life opinion of him, “Which apparently, reading between the lines, leads me to believe that they think I’m okay.”

The Penguin’s real name in the DC Comics is Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, which explains why Matt mentioned Oz in the tweet.
