Colin Farrell Dropped the Parental Ball by Watching 'It' with His Son

Colin Farrell admitted to Ellen the "parental dropping of the ball of epic proportions" by watching the horror movie "It" with his 8-year-old son. The Hollywood star also shared his excitement about playing The Penguin in the upcoming film "The Batman," what it was like jumping into icy cold water in Greenland, and about his new movie, "The Gentlemen."

[@sarcasmxkate]

@@johnmichael_ Right?! And news broke today that they're finally doing that Justice League Dark movie so now I'm even more bummed. I do think Matt Ryan is a perfect Constantine, and wish they'd be willing to use the TV actors for movies, if they did, Matt would be my number 1 choice.

[@ArgChica]

Wow..yes that would have been awesome. But Matt was awesome as well

[@MM-hk4pb]

@Burt Macklin mmmm not Ryan. He has the looks and he’s British but his personality doesn’t fit too well with Constantine’s. The only version of him as Constantine that works was City of Demons animated film. I would rather have Collin Farrell play John.

[@sarcasmxkate]

@@MM-hk4pb well that's your opinion, so cool. I however find him to be a very good Constantine. Not to mention, when written for the big screen, it would be different.

[@MM-hk4pb]

@Burt Macklin he’s not a very good Constantine if you consider the real John from Hellblazer. But each to their own. It’s better if they just go for a different person when it comes to live action movies. Specially now when the possibility of the multiverse has been created in DCEU.
