10 Movie Costumes That Actors Never Want To Put On Again
We might see these movie costumes as beautiful and iconic, but they’re total nightmares for these actors. Yes, they might look great to the audience, but they are surely not comfortable for the people who wear them. Some have too many layers, others have too little coverage. Either way, these actors are glad that they don't have to wear them again.
So let's find out the stories behind these movie costumes and why these movie stars dislike them so much. Do you spot your favorite outfit on the list?
During the shooting process, Hemsworth bulked up so much that he hardly fit into the costume anymore. The sleeves would get so tight to the point they would cut off the blood flow in his arms and his hands would start going numb. Hemsworth was only able to continue his work after the costume designers altered the outfit.
However, Olsen did acknowledge her costume in the movie was much better than how it was in the comics. "But then you look at where it started in the comic books and it was a leotard and a headband so…oh, it's horrible, it’s so horrible. So at least they know that’s not cool," she said.
And her character was deeply sexualized by the outfit too. Luckily, the designers noticed how inappropriate this attire was and decided to give her brand new costumes in later movies.
Fisher thinks this type of costume is bad, even for supermodels. It objectified a woman and sexualized them. Fisher supported other actresses who acted in the latest episodes of Star Wars to fight for their right not to wear such outfits.
Lawrence recalled that she couldn’t go to the bathroom normally because the costume wouldn’t let her sit down. She had to pee while standing up, using a small funnel. This made her Mystique costume cultivate “a distinct smell.”
It took 8 hours to apply Carrey’s full-body makeup prosthetics and costume. The process was later shortened to 2 hours of application and 1 hour of removal. However, it would repeat 92 times more before the movie was finished.
Those movie costumes suddenly sound much less cool, eh? Is there any outfit that you would like to try on? Speaking of film attires, there are some pretty cool behind-the-scenes facts about iconic horror movie costumes that can blow your mind. Ready to uncover the secrets behind the spook?
