What's your favorite example of a book explicitly describing a character as ugly but the film adaptation still casting a hot actor?


Some favorites of mine:-Gurney Halleck, described in Dune as "an ugly lump of a man." Played in the movie by Josh Brolin-Bill Denbrough, described in It as a balding man with a frumpy ponytail and thick glasses. Played in the film by James McAvoy-Brienne of Tarth, introduced in A Clash of Kings by the POV character observing that the nickname "Brienne the Beauty" must be a mockery. Played by Gwendoline Christie. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/7QukrbO
