- Get Your OwnWhy we like him ( and why we wanna F*ck him )?
This raucous bad boy from Dublin filled a long-running showbiz vacuum: the lack of a fast-talking, foul-mouthed, smoke-breathing young rebels in the high Hollywood ranks. His complete disregard for what is considered proper only makes him that much cooler. And he's a solid actor too. It'great that Colin has gratitude for people who have helped him in his career. He is grateful for the break Joel Schumacher gave him in Tigerland: "It all goes back to [Joel Schumacher]. I wouldn't have done Phone Booth without him. I wouldn't be doing Hart's War. I probably wouldn't have done American Outlaws if he hadn't picked me out of obscurity. I've worked, but not at the level or people I'm working with now if he hadn't taken a chance on an Irish kid playing a Texan."
Farrell went from a directionless wise guy from Dublin to major Hollywood player in only three years. He was able to stand out in Ireland in a market saturated with aspiring actors. His first movie role was enough to catch the attention of England's eminent broadcaster, the BBC. Finally, it was word of mouth that got him his first American film role, which hurled him onto the fast track to stardom. Serendipity alone cannot explain Colin Farrell's Hollywood success. Sure, he got a few lucky breaks (several, in fact), but being in the right place at the right time is only half the battle. The man is just plain impressive.
Farrell appeared in the title role of Alexander the Great in 2004's Alexander, which received mixed reviews. The film was marked by controversy, including homoerotic scenes with other men. Both the movie, including Oliver Stone's directing and story telling of Alexander, and Hephaistion's bisexual aspects, were heavily criticized by some historians and film critics who saw it as an inaccurate and misleading representation of the characters' sexualities. WTF!!!??? Everyone knows, homosexuality and bisexuality were accepted in Ancient Greece!!! Fucking conservatives! Though it failed at the US box office, it made a profit on its overseas revenues.
Lately, Colin Farrell has forced an internet site to close down after it attempted to sell copies of a sex tape which shows the actor engaging in explicit acts with playboy model Nicole Narain.
The 'Alexander' star and the glamour model were left fuming after discovering the tape - which is alleged to show the two stars engaged in a variety of sex acts, including several positions from the Kama Sutra - for sale for $14.9 on website dirtycolin.com. Actually, with the size of his cock, he should let the tape be shown; it could do wonders for his career the way a nobody like Paris Hilton became a star. Still love Colin, though...he is very open-minded and liberal, not to mention hung and sexy!!!
He employs his sister as his personal assistant, though. Wouldn't that lead to awkward situations? Oh, and did you know, he once audtioned for Boyzone?!!! LOL!!!
He failed, which is good, because he didn't belong there, he belongs in Hollywood! Funny, I think only Ronan Keating and Stephen Gately are the only hot guys in that band. They could have used Colin's macho sex appeal.
