Mads Mikkelsen In Doctor Strange
Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen is known for his ability to play just about any role ranging from Hannibal Lecter to a Bond villain. However, in order to become Kaecilius in Doctor Strange, some altercations had to be made.
He had to receive makeup around his eyes that made him look like a colorful raccoon, as well as dye his hair. In addition, his already prominent bone structure helped to really sell the part. Another villainous part, check.
Emilia Clarke As Daenerys
Although she’s a favorite on the television show, you very well might pass by Emilia Clarke on the street unknowingly without her staple silver Targaryen hair or dragon companions. Emilia Clarke certainly undergoes many transformations on-set according to what her character Daenerys is undergoing at the time. She goes from clean to dirty back to clean so many times it makes your head spin.
Clarke also goes through numerous costume changes as Daenerys slowly rises to power throughout the series. Even though she rides a mechanical bull-like mechanism in front of a green screen during her dragon riding scenes, it feels as though she really has a special connection with them.
Christian Nairn As Hodor
I think we can all agree that no one expected Hodor to serve up punk rock hipster vibes in real life. That’s because in real life, he’s a DJ. While he’s gone on to act in other film and television shows, playing the friendly giant was Nairn first acting role ever.
After he takes off the multiple layer of fur coats, Nairn returns to DJ. He is the resident house DJ at a gay club in Belfast, Ireland and in 2014 went on a DJ tour called “Rave of Thrones.”
