Colin Farrell played stylish private investigator John Sugar in Apple TV+’s Sugar. He wore sharp, beautifully tailored suits and looked like a male model as he glided around a sun-drenched Los Angeles investigating a case.

And don’t bother looking for Colin Farrell either. He may be in there, somewhere, hidden by the fat, the sweat, the scar that runs from lip to cheek and the perversely immersive impersonation he gives of a hard-woikin’ hoodlum from Gotham City.
