Sebastian Stan Is Unrecognizable in First Look Photo for the Film A DIFFERENT MAN
Sebastian Stan has shared the first photo of his upcoming film project A Different Man, and as you can see, he is completely unrecognizable as his face is covered in prosthetics. Stan plays Edward, a man with neurofibromatosis, which is a condition where tumors grow in the nervous system.
In the story, Edward undergoes facial reconstructive surgery, but he then becomes obsessed with an actor starring as him in a play based on his life. That certainly sounds like an interesting story, and I’m curious to see how it plays out.
Stan credits Mike Marino for the prosthetics, and he most recently worked on The Batman. He worked on transforming Colin Farrell into Oswald Cobblepot, a.k.a. The Penguin.
A Different Man also stars Renate Reinsve (The Worst Person in the World) and Adam Pearson (Under The Skin) who has neurofibromatosis himself.
The film is being produced by A24, and it’s written and directed by Aaron Schimberg. The film is currently shooting in New York City.
