Celebrity Cosplay Moments That Blurred the Line Between Real and Fantasy

The art of cosplay has taken the world by storm, allowing ordinary fans to embody extraordinary characters and bring them to life. Over the years, many celebrities have come to embrace this latest form of dress-up and have displayed their own creative costumes.

Below is a line-up of some of the best cosplay moments from celebrities.

Bryan Cranston as Walter White

A true master of disguise, Bryan Cranston roamed the convention halls of San Diego Comic-Con in 2013 completely hidden underneath a realistic Heisenberg mask.

Assuming he was just another fellow “Breaking Bad” fan, many cosplayers were stunned when he revealed himself during a panel for the show. The “hyperflesh” mask, created by Landon Meier, cost $3,000 to make and succeeded in fooling those lucky enough to sneak a selfie.

Julia Voth as Jill Valentine

Best known for her roles in “Castle” and “Package Deal,” the actress and model’s likeness served as inspiration for the “Resident Evil” video-game character Jill Valentine. After receiving a custom-made beret created by a fan, Voth decided to cosplay as Valentine and do a series of photoshoots as the character. The model’s Instagram (@juliavoth) features some shots taken at WonderCon 2016.

Lupita Nyong’o as the Pink Power Ranger

Donning a Pink Power Ranger costume, the “Black Panther” actress danced her way down the halls of the 2013 San Diego Comic Con in a series of videos posted on her Twitter account (@Lupita_Nyongo).

During her second day at the convention, she wore a Kylo Ren mask much to the delight of “Star Wars” fans.

Daniel Radcliffe as Spider-Man

No need for a Polyjuice Potion here! The “Harry Potter” star cleverly disguised himself among the muggles as the friendly web-slinger during the 2014 SDCC while promoting his film “Horns.” With his face completely covered, Radcliffe took the disguise to another level by adopting an American accent to further fool the convention’s attendees.
