Actors don’t like playing roles where the characters need to don a moustache or a beard and yet they have to do it time and again. Amitabh Bachchan once explained how the gum bites into the skin and causes discomfort. Rishi Kapoor wanted to leave Kapoor & Sons because he could not bear the process of prosthetics and Kamal Haasan has gone on record to admit that only a very patient actor can endure the prosthetic trauma. But it appears that technology is changing and there are better adaptations of prosthetics.
Golden Globe nominee Christopher Abbott, who portrays Blake in Wolf Man has shared that the idea of wearing prosthetics was weighing him down but the prosthetics team ensured that there was no discomfort all the way. Wolf Man is about Blake and his family who are attacked by an unseen animal and, in a desperate escape, they barricade themselves inside a farmhouse as the creature prowls the perimeter. As the night stretches on, however, Blake begins to behave strangely, transforming into something unrecognizable that soon jeopardizes his wife and daughter.
