‘The Batman’ Star Colin Farrell Hit Up Starbucks in Terrifying Penguin Costume (That’ll Scare You Off of Coffee For Good)

The buzz surrounding The Batman movie is almost as strong as a triple espresso. Colin Farrell, who plays supervillain Oswald Cobblepot-Penguin in the forthcoming thriller, contributed to that when he made a Starbucks run in full costume.

In an interview with Collider, the Golden Globe-winning actor recounted how he stopped into a Burbank, California, location of the coffee chain wearing fake teeth, a wig, facial prosthetics, and a bodysuit.

“The first day we tried the whole thing out, we took it for a drive, a spin metaphorically speaking,” Farrell said. “I went into Starbucks and ordered myself a very un-Oswald drink, an oat-milk latte with two stevia sweeteners.”

The look, which took as many as eight hours and a team of up to 15 people to accomplish, was apparently convincing enough.

“I got a couple of stares but only because it’s such an imposing look,” Farrell said.

We’ve been meaning to quit coffee for a while now, but if we saw the Penguin at our local Starbucks, that’d be sufficient to scare us off java for good.
