Colin Farrell Wears His Signature Short Shorts While Reuniting with Q’Orianka Kilcher, Nearly 18 Years After Making 'The New World'

Colin Farrell and Q’Orianka Kilcher have reunited, nearly 18 years after they made their controversial movie The New World.

The 45-year-old actor and the 32-year-old actress were spotted meeting up for a hike on Friday morning (March 11) in Los Feliz, Calif.

Colin was spotted in his signature purple short shorts, two weeks after he opened up about his 12-year-old son’s thoughts on the look.

There was a lot of controversy surrounding The New World when it was released back in 2005. The movie, which was shot in late 2004, starred Colin as American colonist John Smith and Q’Orianka as Pocahontas. She was just 14 at the time and the movie featured a love scene between the two actors.

In January 2005, a source had told British mag The People, “Farrell was told to get romantic and sensual but knew there was a certain amount of kissing involved. He played the scene brilliantly and he really put Q’Orianka at her ease. But when the lawyers saw the finished product with Colin and Q’Orianka rolling around on the ground kissing they just flipped out.”

A tamer version of the scene was reportedly re-shot, according to Today.
