Tom Hollander revealed a brand new look after he shaved his head Monday to play legendary writer Truman Capote in a brand new movie.
The BAFTA winner was on the set of Feud: Capote’s Women – a film adaptation of Laurence Leamer’s Capote’s Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era – in New York, a city so often was romanticized by the late breakfast at the author of Tiffany.
Hollander, 55, wore a khaki jacket over a white T-shirt and brown jeans as he mingled with a small production team during his latest location shoot.

The British actor completed the look with a pair of blue slip-on shoes, while wearing black-framed glasses as an accessory.
He strolled the set with a crew member and was later joined by Naomi Watts who looked effortlessly chic in a white shirt and black maxi skirt.
As previously announced, Hollander will star alongside Demi Moore, who plays socialite Ann Woodward, Diane Lane, Calista Flockhart and Chloë Sevigny.

Season one, which aired in 2017, starred Susan Sarandon and Jessica Lange as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, respectively.
The upcoming second season, which Variety says will also have Diane Lane and Calista Flockhart on board, will focus on how Truman alienated his circle from New York.
Diane Lane plays Nancy ‘Slim’ Keith and Calista Flockhart plays Jackie Kennedy’s younger and more lively sister Lee Radziwill.
The news of their casting comes after it emerged that Naomi Watts has been hired to play Barbara “Babe” Paley, alongside Chloe Sevigny as CZ Guest.

Slim Keith, Babe Paley, CZ Guest and Lee Radziwill were pillars of New York society who initially embraced Truman – only to freeze him after he aired their dirty laundry in an explosive short story.
A native of the South and a childhood friend of To Kill A Mockingbird author Harper Lee, Truman was launched in New York’s beau monde after achieving phenomenal literary success in the 1950s and 1960s.
His books Breakfast At Tiffany’s and In Cold Blood became great bestsellers and instant classics, and Manhattan’s elite paid tribute to him in their midst.

A hard-drinking gay with a wasp sense of humor and a flair for gossip, he was especially loved by social ladies like Babe Paley and Gloria Vanderbilt.
Famed filmmaker Gus Van Sant is on board to direct all eight episodes. He has made his mark in both independent and mainstream films with resumes including Drugstore Cowboy (1989), My Own Private Idaho (1991), To Die For (1995), Good Will Hunting (1997) and Milk (2008). .
Jon Robin Baitz will write the new season and act as showrunner.
In addition to her starring role, Watts will also serve as an executive producer along with Murphy through Ryan Murphy Productions, Plan B’s Dede Gardner, Tim Minear and Alexis Martin Woodall.
The second season of Feud comes five years after the eight-episode debut, Bette And Joan (2017), starring Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon as Hollywood stars Bette Davis and Joan Crawford.
It dealt with the two Hollywood legends’ well-documented rivalry during and after the production of their psychological horror thriller film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962).
Critically acclaimed, with high praise for Lange and Sarandon’s performances, the series received several accolades, including four Golden Globe Awards and 18 nominations at the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards, two of which were won for Outstanding Hairstyling and Makeup (Non-Prosthetic).
It was originally reported that the sequel season of Feud, subtitled Charles And Diana, would focus on Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, Princess of Wales. The subtitle was renamed Buckingham Palace, but the idea was eventually scrapped in 2018.
