To fully dedicate themselves to their roles, many actors have had to accept sacrificing their beauty or handsomeness for a new “ugly” appearance.
Keanu Reeves was unrecognizable as himself with a beard and mohawk in the movie Bill & Ted Face The Music. To get a muscular look, Keanu had to wear a muscle suit full of tattoos.
In the latest version of The Toxic Avenger, Elijah Wood takes on the role of Fritz Garbinger, a character designed specifically for his talent. The role of Fritz Garbinger turned the actor into an unrecognizable character, causing him to leave his previous sweet, kind image to become a freak.
It’s hard to imagine a leprechaun in the context of a horror movie, but Warwick Davis excelled at it in The Leprechaun series. For this role, Warwick Davis required heavy makeup and fake nails for his character to give the audience the most perfect appearance possible.
In all the Avengers movies, Chris Hemsworth plays the god of thunder Thor. To play the role, the actor had to wear a “fat suit” weighing about 27kg, a complete difference from his usual muscular image.
It’s surprising that the actress who plays Brienne of Tarth, a woman determined to become the first female knight in the Seven Kingdoms, can outwardly possess such elegance and sophistication. To prepare for her role, Christie embarked on a journey of transformation. She began by adopting a more androgynous style, wearing unisex clothing on a daily basis to match her character’s mindset. In addition, she has undergone rigorous training to build muscle mass to enhance her impressive figure.
Jared Leto is a talented actor, known for his excellent ability to seamlessly portray various characters. In the blink of an eye, he could go from playing the Joker in Suicide Squad to playing a transgender woman in The Dallas Buyers Club. In the movie Mr. Nothing, he takes on the character of Nemo, a 118-year-old man who is the last mortal left on earth.
Emma Thompson is one of the best British actresses when she was honored to receive two Oscar nominations in 1993, a remarkable achievement. This elegant and graceful woman left many impressions when playing the quirky and somewhat bohemian fortune-telling teacher in the Harry Potter film series. The role must have been quite a challenge for the actress.
John Travolta brought laughter to countless fans around the world when portraying the rebellious teenager in Grease. Every day before filming began, Travolta and the production crew had to invest an additional four hours to transform into his role.
Taryn Manning is perhaps best known for her role as Mimi in Crossroads, where she shared the screen with Britney Spears. However, for her role as Tiffany in Orange Is the New Black, she underwent a significant change in appearance.
Ryan Gosling is certainly known for his striking good looks in all the movies he’s appeared in. However, as the film delves deeper into the characters’ development, we witness a drastic change in Gosling’s appearance. In the latter part of the film Blue Valentine, the actor plays a working-class character, older, overweight and partially bald, a far cry from his usual on-screen image.
Christian Bale became famous largely thanks to his tireless dedication to his roles. For his role in The Machinist, he underwent a notable transformation, losing approximately 50 pounds to portray a man suffering from insomnia and haunted by his past. Interestingly, Bale initially set himself the goal of losing more weight, but the production team intervened because of concerns about potential risks to his health.
Marion Cotillard is an actress and Dior model, famous for her exquisite beauty and grace. However, when she took on the iconic role of famous French singer Edith Piaf, she had an amazing transformation. Cotillard has partially shaved his head and eyebrows, meticulously recreated with eyeliner. Her stellar role earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
Naomi Grossman was recognized for her role as Pepper in American Horror Story: Asylum. To showcase the character’s unique personality, Grossman also made a notable change. In addition to shaving her head, she also had to spend many hours with makeup artists. The results were truly astonishing, leaving Grossman almost unrecognizable in his own appearance.
Hilary Swank stunned Hollywood with her role as Brandon Teena, a transgender man in the movie Boys Don’t Cry. To prepare for this transformative role, the actress completely immersed herself in the character, living as a man for a month.
Her commitment to her profession often confused her neighbors, as they truly believed that the young man seen coming in and out of her house was her brother. Swank’s exceptional performance won her many awards, including the Academy Award for Best Actress.
