Speaking of Colin Farrell, the Dublin actor also has a full slate of films coming up. He was just in the much-praised Civil War drama The Beguiled (beside Nicole Kidman) and in November his second collaboration with director Yorgos Lanthimos (after The Lobster) will hit screens. The Killing of a Sacred Deer is being marketed as psychological thriller about the dangerous bond that forms between a doctor and a troubled boy. Sacred Deer also stars – you guessed it – Nicole Kidman. Farrell is also currently shooting the political thriller The Inner City with Denzel Washington. ♦
