10 First-Look Images From Upcoming Movies

Skin Jamie Bell
A24

He's always been a great actor, but Jamie Bell has never really been given the role he deserves. Despite attempting to throw off his boyish charm by tackling darker characters The Thing in Fantastic 4, the films he's starred in have never quite done the actor justice.

Once again attempting to push himself out of his comfort zone, Bell is starring as Byron Widner - a skinhead thug covered head to toe in terrifying tattoos - in A24's upcoming drama Skin.

The studio are yet to release a trailer, but they have finally shown off the actor in full makeup, which has set a suitably menacing tone. It's probably not going to be much fun, but A24 rarely puts a foot wrong, and this could be the movie that finally breaks Jamie Bell into awards consideration.
