Farrell showed off his ripped physique in his sporty ensemble which also included Adidas track pants and trainers. 

He wrapped a bandana around his head holding back his spiky short hair.

The star of Saving Mr. Banks and The Beguiled revealed on The Late Late Show last year that he’d made the decision to remove his inkings to make his life easier. 

‘I’m getting rid of them because I got tired of getting painted in the makeup chair anytime I wear a T-shirt,’ he explained.

‘It buys me an extra 45 minutes sleep in the morning,’ he added. ‘Obviously, none of them had that much significance to me that I would choose 45 minutes over my own history!’
