In Hollywood, there’s plenty of parallel universes, with each movie having its own (little) world. However, whether we’re talking about a ship crossing the Atlantic or a dystopian Chicago, these places need inhabitants too. Otherwise, we just wouldn’t care about them.
So actors cross these boundaries, assuming different identities with each leap into a new setting. And some of their transformations are so radical, it’s hard to even realize the same person is behind them.
