Ralph Fiennes – Removed Hair From Chest, Arms & Head

When award-winning special visual effects artist Nick Dudman transformed Fiennes for Lord Voldemort’s role in Harry Potter, he created one of his best works. Dudman’s team used minimal prosthetics, but the actor had to shave his chest, arms, and head. Fortunately, he did not require nose surgery because the unusual appearance was created digitally.

Marlon & Shawn Wayans – Wigs, Makeup & Plaster Face Casts

Thanks to the performances of Marlon and Shawn Wayans, who not only had to transform into girls – but white blond girls (! ), White Chicks became a classic action-comedy. Not only did they have to put on a lot of makeup and wigs, but they also had to get plaster casts for their faces to make them look more “girlish.” To complete the look, they had to wear blue contact lenses. For each actor, the arduous transformation process lasted seven hours each day. Greg Cannom, a special effects artist, worked on the transformations.
