Michelle Rodriguez transforms into a bearded middle-aged man for new film role
ACTRESS Michelle Rodriguez has transformed into a bearded man for a new film.
The Fast and Furious star, 38, looked almost unrecognisable as she posted a picture of her new look on her Instagram page.
The actress, who revealed she was bisexual in 2013, admitted that although she was dressed as a man, she'd "never felt more like a woman."
With her breasts taped down for the part, Michelle wrote alongside the snap: "Heheheh at TIFF promoting 'TomBoy A Revengers Tale' producers are convinced the new movie title should be re-assignment but I'll stick to the title I signed on to shoot... 'Tomboy'.
"It's in the B Movie genre, a culture shock pic, shot like a 'film Noir' graphic novel."

Avatar actress Michelle, who has also been romantically linked to both Cara Delevingne and Zac Efron in the past, went on: "I played a male assassin for four days in the movie, boy was that beard itchy.
"Then out revenge, a twisted Doctor played by Sigourney Weaver decides to take my character's manhood away with a sex change to teach him a lesson. I never felt more like a woman than when I played a man."
She added: "For the rest of the film I was a man stuck in a newly operated sex changed body.
"I had fake boob covers to look like man implants & I wore a fake hairy 'mangina' which you can't really see cause they made it so hairy."
Posting a series of backstage snap to her social media page, Michelle tried to convey the fun she'd had on set, commenting she's glad she "took the plunge" with the indy film.
