Robin Williams / Mrs. Doubtfire
For his role in Mrs. Doubtfire, Robin Williams wore a complete set of prosthetics because he would do anything for a good laugh. Even though it took a while to put everything on, the result was worth it. Even in the movie, there is a sequence where you can watch the transition.
Because of all the sweat and dirt during filming, Williams had to wear eight layers of foam latex pieces on his head, which had to be rebuilt weekly. Not to mention how long it took to take everything off at the end of the day! Robin Williams’ dedication to his role as Mrs. Doubtfire, which included enduring the lengthy and intricate prosthetic application process, highlighted his commitment to bringing laughter to audiences. The effort put into the transformation, complete with the transition scenes, added authenticity and humor to the character.
