Colin Farrell wins Golden Globe for role of Oswald Cobb in Penguin

Colin Farrell won his third Golden Globe last night for his lead role in Penguin

Andrew Scott was also nominated in this category for his role in Ripley as the Irish continue to represent Stateside.

During his speech, Farrell paid tribute to his makeup team, who helped create the character of Oswald Cobb - making him virtually unrecognisable.

He said: “You all know it takes a village, whether it's on the small screen or the big screen,” he said.

“I'm here on the backs of the talents of so many people through the years.

“Maybe this one more than others, because of Mike Moreno, who designed the makeup his extraordinary makeup team.”

This marked the actor’s third Golden Globe win, having previously won awards for his performances in The Banshees of Inisherin and In Bruges.

The Golden Globes, hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, will air on RTÉ2 on Monday from 9:00pm.
