Colin Farrell transforms into The Penguin on set of The Batman spin-off series ... trends now

Colin Farrell was spotted back on set of the highly-anticipated Batman spin-off series, The Penguin, on Wednesday in New York City.

The actor, 46, looked unrecognizable as Gotham City mobster Oswald Cobblepot aka 'The Penguin' in heavy facial prosthetics by FX makeup artists Mike Marino and Mike Fontaine that completely transformed his handsome features.

Colin's luscious brunette coif was replaced by a head of thinning brown hair with a receding hairline. 

The Irish hunk - who recently lost the Academy Award for Best Actor to The Whale's Brendan Fraser - has been hard at work on the HBO show since February with The Batman director Matt Reeves executive producing the project with Dylan Clark.

For Wednesday's shoot, Colin was seen in full costume as he hung out between takes with co-star Rhenzy Feliz, 25.

Costume designer Helen HuangHe dressed Colin in a blue plaid blazer with a bright red pocket square over a deep purple button-up shirt.

She completed the look with black slacks and shiny leather dress shoes.

He also rocked jewelry worthy of the 'Gentleman of Crime,' which included a gold ring with a large ruby stone, a gold watch and a gold chainlink bracelet.

Colin and Rhenzy were photographed chatting near production equipment with grape Slush Puppies in hand, which appeared to be props for the next scene.

The duo then made their way in front of the cameras and took a seat on a bench hunkered down beside a bustling NYC street.

For this particular scene, Colin layered a brown leather jacket over his purple plaid blazer.

Later, The Banshees of Inisherin star was seen with his elbow resting against a trolley filled with trunks and tarps before stepping into frame.

The Penguin - aka Oswald Cobblepot - will be the focal point of the eight-episode miniseries on HBOMax.

Details on the storyline of the project remain scarce, as it is anticipated that the timeline will be in sync with where the film left off, following the death of Batman nemesis Carmine Falcone.
