Farrell notably starred alongside Angelina Jolie, Val Kilmer, and Anthony Hopkins in Oliver Stone's historical epic.
An adaptation for the ages. At least, that’s what Oliver Stone and the cast and crew of the 2004 film, Alexander had hoped for. Set to tell the tale of Alexander the Great's rise to power across the ancient world, Colin Farrell was cast to play the young Macedonian prince and later king, who would carve out one of the largest empires the world had ever seen.
Production on the film spanned three continents and took six months while gulping a budget of $155 million. However, the film was not well received by critics with issues of xenophobia and the accuracy of historical accounts highlighted. Alexander had a limp outing at the box office, grossing just over $167 million to the horror of all involved. Farrell in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, recounts that experience and how it made him feel. “Expectation is a dangerous thing,” he states.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The Banshees of Inisherin star recalls that the film was the brainchild of director Stone with the cast and crew believing so much in the project they had really high expectations. “When I say “expectations’, we all have our tuxedos ready. I’m not even joking. There was some of the lads, yeah, who were all like ‘Right, lads, we’re off to the Oscars. This is a sure thing, because we had Oliver Stone,” Farrell says.
