Emma Stone looks like an unrecognizable brunette in the first trailer for her upcoming movie while սndergoing shock therapy
In the first teaser for her next movie Poor Things, which opens with video of her character, Bella Baxter,
receiving shock therapy on a medical examination table, Emma Stone was almost unrecognizably unrecognizable as a brunette.
The Oscar winner, 34, underwent a dramatic transformation to portray a woman who was brought back to life by a ‘brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe),’
according to the movie’s synopsis, in the movie’s 46-second trailer for the science-fiction romance, which is based on the 1992 novel of the same name by Alasdair Gray.
The Cruella de Vil diva used minimal makeup and a brunette wig instead of her trademark red locks for the part.
Stone was shown ranting in the teaser that she finds «being alive fascinating» after being restored and acting
a little strangely in one moment as she spits out food before smacking Duncan Wedderburn (Mark Ruffalo) in the face.
As a «volatile, oversexed, emancipated woman and a female Frankenstein,» her persona is described.
In the twisted thriller, Stone’s character drowns herself to get away from her violent husband and gets her unborn child’s brain implanted in her place.
The film’s director, Yorgos Lanthimos, discussed his somewhat peculiar body of work, which includes The Lobster, in an interview with Interview Magazine from 2018.
I actually like awkwardness. I believe it’s a crucial emotion for people since it could spark a curiosity about certain things.
I enjoy being in the position of trying to determine how I should feel or whether what I am experiencing is suitable or not as an audience member.
Since giving birth to her first child, a baby girl named Louise Jean McCary, in 2021, Stone has been busy, working on projects like The Curse,
her upcoming Showtime comedy series with Nathan Fielder, Benny Safdie, Corbin Bernsen, Barkhad Abdi, and Constance Shulman.
The show will examine «how an alleged curse disturbs a newlywed couple’s relationship as they attempt to have a child while co-starring on their troubled new HGTV show,
Flipanthropy,» according to the synopsis.
The Golden Globe winner admitted that she finds parenting to be «very, very exciting» months after giving birth.
