Uma Thurman has a unique and exotic type of beauty, and she usually shows it off in all of her roles. All except for one, when she played the famous villain Poison Ivy in 1997’s ‘Batman & Robin’.
Although she does eventually become Poison Ivy, a sexy minx that fights the movie’s superheroes, she starts the movie as Dr. Pamela Isley, who looks like a nerdy trainwreck. Nothing like the real-life Uma.
Julia Roberts
In the American adaptation of the 2009 Argentinian film, ‘El Secreto de Sus Ojos’ (‘The Secret in Their Eyes’), Julia Roberts plays Jessica Cobb. The character is an investigator that is anything but glamorous.
Roberts is covered in a thick layer of white foundation and has a terrible haircut with bangs, and her personality, as a mother who is destroyed by the death of her daughter, is somber at best.
Melissa Rauch
When the nerdy blonde Dr. Bernadette first appeared on 'The Big Bang Theory', audiences loved the character. She was sweet, naive and a total brainiac with a PhD. However, her extremely irritating voice and nerdy look (glasses and a very outdated wardrobe) couldn't be farther from what this cute blonde looks like in real life.
Actress Melissa Rauch doesn't have an annoying voice at all, and if you look at some of her red carpet styles and magazine photo-shoots, you'll be blown away by this cute blonde.
Lizzy Caplan
The talented and hilarious Lizzy Caplan became known for her role as a cater waitress in the hysterical comedy series, ‘Party Down’. Then she made a big break with her role as Jais Ian in ‘Mean Girls’.
She played Lindsay Lohan’s weird, goth-looking teenager friend who was always wearing dark colors and making snarky remarks. Definitely a change for the usually happy-go-lucky, bright-color wearing actress.
Rooney Mara
When Rooney Mara played Lisbeth Salander in 2011's 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo', her hair was short and chopped, she had no eyebrows, she was covered in piercings, and she just looked incredibly weird. However, if you've ever seen this New Yorker out of her character, you'd know how intense this transformation was.
Mara is stunning in real life, and definitely has nothing but style. But hey, we're sure the temporary piercings were worth it, as the actress won an Oscar for her role.
