Nobody Can Guess These Actors Play These Roles Until The Credits Show Up

Sharon McFadden

Some movie transformations are just so mind-blowing that we have to double-check the credits to see if the directors are trying to fool us or not. These roles are prime examples of that. Nobody can guess these actors play these roles until we see their names on the screen. They just look nothing like their usual selves or their other roles!
So what kind of dark magic is this!? Well, the answer is costumes, makeup, and computer graphics. These transformations take hours, even days to create and they are certainly no easy work. It takes a lot of team effort and patience from both the actor and the crew to pull off, but it’s all worth it. We gotta admit that these actors play these roles well.
So let’s see who has the most epic transformation. Do you think their transformations are amazing or do you recognize these guys at the first glance?
