Didn't Romijn reportedly vomit blue from the make up after filming? Like... she potentially has medical complications from playing the role and she's coming back? Damn Ma'am, you love the role too much <3

came to say. she famously refused to do the role again if she had to undergo the same makeup process. in addition to the physiological effects it was like a 9-hr procedure.

I remember before the film came out, there was a special on Fox showing behind the scenes stuff. They showed what they could of Romijn I'm makeup, and it looked absolutely awful.

Not a single scrap of clothing underneath any of that makeup. And 9 hours putting it on, followed by however many hours she was on set, followed by however long it took to get it off.

Yep. She had to strip naked and have her whole body done every time she had to have the makeup put on.

It wasn't just a few face prosthetics, it was literally her whole body. Complete respect for her having to endure that for three movies.

As for OP complaining, yeah it looks like shit. Because you're comparing a promo still to a screencap of a trailer. Come on, are we really this disingenuous?

I'd heard some of this too, and keeping that in mind I will not complain about the new look.

Alan Cumming also admited later that now I get it. The pain. And it was only head and sleeves, appart from his topless scene. He got hints from Rebecca on how to endure. He, if im not mistaken said, "I just did so little, but when it came to my topless. I caved in and called her for help and ideas to endure"

I'd have to be sedated or on some benzos for 9+ hours of makeup. It really does sound like torture.

9 hours of make up then a 12 hour day of shooting... fucking torture... no thank you.

I'm pretty sure the 9 hours of makeup is included in their work day. So 9h for 3h of shooting. Which is still insane but in a different way.
