Colin Farrell’s special red carpet moment with lookalike son Henry at 2025 Emmys

Colin Farrell turned heads at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards. The Irish actor arrived at the Los Angeles ceremony with a special guest by his side, his 15-year-old son, Henry.

The pair hit the red carpet looking effortlessly polished. Farrell, 49, wore a velvet tuxedo, while Henry opted for an all-black ensemble, which consisted of a black suit, black shirt, and matching tie, mirroring his father’s sophisticated style. 

The father-son duo posed for photographers with serious expressions. Inside the venue, Farrell introduced Henry to several industry friends, giving the teen a behind-the-scenes peek at Hollywood’s big night.

While the ‘Penguin’ star didn’t take home the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie, the evening clearly held significance beyond awards.

This isn’t the first time Farrell has brought Henry to a high-profile event. They previously walked the red carpet together at the 2023 Academy Awards, both dressed in classic tuxedos. More recently, in September 2024, Henry joined his father at the New York premiere of ‘The Penguin.’

Again, the teen wore all black, sticking to his now-signature style. Henry is Farrell’s younger son with actress Alicja Bachleda-Curuś, his co-star in the 2009 film ‘Ondine.’ The two were in a relationship from 2008 to 2010. Farrell also has an older son, 22-year-old James, with former partner Kim Bordenave.

James was born with Angelman syndrome, a rare neurogenetic condition that affects speech, movement, balance, and cognitive development. In April, Farrell spoke candidly about a decision he and Bordenave made regarding James’ long-term care.

“It’s tricky, some parents will say, ‘I want to take care of my child myself,’ and I respect that,” he told Candis Magazine. “But my horror would be, what if I have a heart attack tomorrow, and, God forbid, James’ mother, Kim, has a car crash and she’s taken too, and then James is on his own?” He added, “And he goes where? We’d have no say in it.”

The couple ultimately placed James in a facility that could provide the full-time care he needs and ensure he can live “a full and happy life.” Farrell also launched a foundation in James’ honor in August 2024.
