Working in COVID isolation, makeup artist Adrien Morot created the foundation of silicone suit to make Brendan Fraser appear obese without ever meeting the actor.
Darren Aronofsky’s frequent collaborator Adrien Morot has earned his second Oscar nomination for developing and fabricating “The Whale’s” weight-gain prosthetic. The achievement goes beyond makeup: The innovative silicone suit is arguably as much a part of Charlie, the film’s central, 600-pound character, as Brendan Fraser’s raw, sympathetic performance in the role.
“Almost systematically, those kind of makeups were either done in comedies where the character was the butt of a joke — ‘Nutty Professor,’ ‘Shallow Hal’ — or it’s in a sci-fi/horror movie,” Morot says. “I thought it was crazy to treat those characters like that. Obviously, this movie is trying to treat the subject with empathy, care and acuity.”
Six Oscar contenders -- Austin Butler, Paul Dano, Brendan Fraser, Jonathan Majors, Bill Nighy and Adam Sandler -- talk about family, playing real people ... and mortality.
