Colin Farrell says he is drawn to darker roles because pain is the one experience all humans share. While he has moments of joy in life and work, he believes pain, fear and uncertainty shape behaviour and fuel aggression and violence

Hollywood star Colin Farrell, who plays an addict in his latest movie Ballad of a Small Player, said he’s drawn to roles exploring the dark side of life because all humans experience bad times.
Farrell said, “I have mad moments of joy in my life, in work, and with my kids. But I’ve always felt that the common denominator in regard to experience as humans is pain. The one thing we’ve all felt, really, is pain. I put fear and uncertainty under that banner. Not everyone, sadly, has felt joy. And that’s a great tragedy. I’m fascinated with pain. Every single act of aggression or violence has its root in pain that has become personalised,” he shared, while speaking to Jessie Buckley in an interview.
