Colin Farrell Starts Foundation in Honor of Son with Angelman Syndrome as He Opens Up

Colin Farrell's house is filled with a bustle and din that’s far from the actor’s comfort zone.

As photography and video teams scurry about the hillside home in Los Angeles, Farrell, 48, is keeping tabs on his son James, 20, who has Angelman syndrome, a rare neurogenetic disorder. James, who is nonverbal, is sitting in the backyard playing catch with his live-in caregiver. He makes eye contact with a journalist standing nearby and immediately throws the miniature basketball in her direction to include her in his game.
