Back in June, Farrell revealed that he was getting ready to film scenes as The Penguin once again.
‘I will go fly to London in four or five weeks. I haven’t got much to do on it, but I’ll go for four or five weeks,’ the actor told Collider at the time.
‘I’ll be there for a few weeks. I’m so excited to see it as a fan.’
Farrell additionally shared his thoughts on the script, which was also co-written by Reeves, and labeled it as ‘extraordinary.’
‘The script, I’ve said before, and you know, I said it to you, it’s extraordinary. It really is. Matt is just so brilliant, and he just cares so deeply about the stories he tells.’
And on the Happy Sad Confused podcast last year, the star also expressed, ‘I had many thoughts to share with Matt about the script. I really do think it’s a masterwork.
‘Kind of a contemporary genre masterwork. It’s so brilliant, and Robert has got such a lovely journey to go on and take the audience through.’
Farrell added that it is also ‘dense’ and ‘intelligent,’ while adding, ‘It’s so deep and detailed. I’m saying too much. I think he’s going to make an extraordinary film.’
