Sebastian Stan's striking appearance provokes thoughts on identity, especially as a Romanian immigrant. Recently, he has discussed how embodying different characters, such as Edward in 'A Different Man,' reshapes his perspective on self-judgment. Winning a Golden Globe for this role, in which he wears a prosthetic face that alters his looks significantly, he reflects on the reactions of others to his transformed appearance, emphasizing how it surprises him and shifts the way he interacts with the world.
Having to morph into something that's not really you is scary, but it stops me from judging myself; it shifts perspective.
Stan just won a Golden Globe for playing Edward, a man who has what appears to be neurofibromatosis...whose features have been weighed down by the way they have developed with and around the growths.
It was really interesting and surreal for me to see how people would react to me in costume, treating me differently based on my appearance.
