Actors do a great job portraying various kinds of characters, so much so that sometimes we forget who they are in real life. That’s why we’ve gathered a list of these extra-talented people acting in different movies to remind you just how incredible they master their roles. We would never believe actors like Tilda Swinton could look so different in 2 separate films.
When we enjoy the outfits of stars on the red carpet, we have no idea how much effort went into creating them. The preparation for such important events can take several weeks or even months. Celebrities have entire teams of professionals, like stylists, hairdressers, makeup artists, and even seamstresses. And in order to make sure everything goes smoothly, celebrities and their assistants use all sorts of different tricks.
There are actors who are called typecast actors because they play the same type of character all the time. Katherine Heigl, Zooey Deschanel, or Michelle Rodriguez, for example, have experienced this problem firsthand. However, there are actresses who can play dozens of different characters, from villains to sweethearts, and be totally convincing in all of them. So, let’s find out who these actresses are.
The Harry Potter franchise is one of the most lucrative in the world. Deathly Hallows — Part 2 is among the 50 highest-grossing films of all time.

Menopause is a time of change when it comes to a woman’s mood, hormones, brain, and body. It occurs 12 months after the last period, and usually starts when you reach your fifties.

She thanks scientific progress for such an opportunity.
When you think that it is too late to start something — either your age is wrong or you don’t have enough energy — it’s worth recalling one simple saying: “Better late than never.” It’s always amazing and charming when you find your style.
In the world of movies, some actors often play similar characters due to their particular appearance or acting skills.

Most of us think celebrities are so unreachable and perfect that we even forget they’re humans like us. If we cross paths with them, we remember it for the rest of our lives.

Most celebrities have to do things to attract attention to themselves. One way to do this is to wear unusual items.

Some actors seem to play the same role in every movie. This happens to Katherine Heigl, Zooey Deschanel, and Michelle Rodriguez. And it’s hard to say why. Perhaps they are so good at their specific type of characters that moviemakers don’t want to try them out in anything else. However, there are actresses who can transform into dozens of different characters — desperate villains and real cuties.
People often have very opposite opinions about actors in book adaptations. Some don’t like it when the movie character looks different from the book description, and others, thanks to talented actors and actresses decide to read the book.

Many factors come into play when producers are casting actors for a big hit like Harry Potter. These choices are often so well-made that the viewer creates a powerful relationship with the character. This powerful relationship makes it hard to dissociate the image of the actor and their on-screen role. For instance, can you imagine a Harry Potter played by someone other than Daniel Radcliffe, or a Hermione not played by Emma Watson? Well, even though many of us think that these actors were “born” to play these roles, it is possible that on several occasions the producers did not agree at first and they may have even chosen someone else. It’s hard to believe, but true.
We appreciate actors for their talented transformations and truthful emotions. But sometimes, fitting into a role might not be that easy — the character can be ambiguous or the life position of the character might be the opposite of the life view of the actor. There are also cases where the actors have to sacrifice one of their main professional tools, their beauty, for the sake of one role.
Costumes help make movie characters come alive and be more believable. Actors and actresses always look forward to the first time they put on a costume and take on their roles. But stars aren’t always comfortable wearing these getups. In this case, they’re forced to spend weeks, and even months, in tight, clunky clothes, spending hours in the dressing room.
Even though all movies are scripted, actors use all the tricks in the book to sell us on their on-screen love stories. What is the best way to make a scene as genuine as possible? Improvise, of course! It can be intimidating to take your co-star by surprise and lay an unexpected kiss on them, but in almost all cases, the reward justifies the risk.
The most known (and feared) villains are often played by actors that are so professional and smart when it comes to acting, that we forget that there’s a true person behind the evil face. Some of them, when they were younger, actually had a pretty sweet and harmless look. It shows just how talented they are, and also the radical change in their look that they had to undergo in order to play a part in a film.
