Hollywood star Johnny Depp gave his fans a glimpse of his epic transformation for the latest film Minamata in a new Instagram video.
Taking to the stage, the Pirates of the Caribbean star, 59, treated his 29.6m followers with a short video clip in which he was seen changing into Life magazine photographer W Eugene Smith.
Sharing the clip, the Edward Scissorhand actor wrote in the caption, "In the make-up trailer on Minamata, now on digital and DVD in North America"
Created by Depp, Minamata revolves around the story of Smith (played by Depp), an American photographer who visits Minamata, a Japanese town in 1971, which was devastated by mercury poisoning in a national scandal.
Directed by Andrew Levitas, Minamata will follow Smith thirty years after his photographic account of the Battle of Okinawa, which earned him a reputation as one of the most important photojournalists of the 20th century.
