Natalie
Dormer, the 32 year old English actress has been in the news recently for her
half shaved look for the upcoming movie The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1.
Natalie plays Cressida, the hot young media-savvy rebel who makes “propos,” a mix
of viral advertising, on-the-fly news clips and inspirational messages that are
the only way for the rebels to communicate to the outside world.
The
actress who had to buzz the left side of her head for the role was very nervous
about shaving half her head, but once she had done the deed she felt
surprisingly free. The actress felt empowered after shaving her long locks and
the half shaved head gives a very edgier look and shows the rebel in her.
Makeup
department head Ve Neill says, “Since Natalie was coming off Game Of Thrones,
we really wanted to give her a completely different look than people were used
to.” In the book she is described as having a shaved head and being tattooed
with green vines, which could mean a number of different things, so we began to
explore from there.”
Ultimately,
Dormer sportingly partially shaved her own hair on one side. “Natalie was kind
of freaked out about the hair at first, but then she said, ‘You know what? I’m rocking it.’ And she did,” muses Neill.
About
her look Natalie feels, “We all felt that shaving just half the head was more
Capitol -- funkier, edgier, and it gave insight into Cressida’s personality.”
At the
recently held world premier Natalie said, “So much of female identity is bound
up in our hair. It was fascinating to explore my idea of what makes me
physically attractive. I felt empowered.”
The
Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1, the third in the global blockbuster Hunger
Games film franchise, releases in India on November 28, 2014.
