Russell Crowe shared a picture of his skin looking sore as he said his latest role – which requires facial prosthetics – has been an “immense” physical and mental battle.
The Gladiator actor, 55, is playing late Fox News founder Roger Ailes in upcoming series The Loudest Voice, and has to wear a bald cap, a body suit and prosthetics to look the part.
Posting a close-up of his face on social media, he wrote: “The Actor endures…
The Actor endures …

Naomi Watts, Seth MacFarlane and Sienna Miller are also among the cast.
