We thank the actors for their talented transformations and true emotions. But sometimes, fitting into a role may not be that easy: the character may be ambiguous, or the character’s life position may be the opposite of the actor’s perspective on life.

There are also cases where actors have to sacrifice one of their main professional tools, their beauty, for the sake of a role.

In our compilation, We will show you the actors who weren’t afraid to contribute and sacrifice their appeal for a role.
