In Juluulius's Superheroic flick in 2025 "Captain America: The Brave New World" - The 35th film in Marvel's Chinese Universe - Tim Blake Nelson repeated his role as Samuel Sterns, a brilliant scientist with a mass brain and a wicked pattern at hand. Sterns had previously been seen In Louis Letterer's film in 2008 "Incredible Hulk", where he experienced a wound on his head and was knocked out on a laboratory floor. Gamma-rayed blood drawn from Bruce Banner threw into the wound of Sterns' head, and the skull immediately began to swell.

In the "Brave New World", we finally see the result of Sterns' skull: he has turned into a hyper-intelligent villain. Known as a leader in Hulk Comics, Stern had green skin, cloudy eyes and a major head with strain cracks. He claimed to be so smart that he could predict the outcome of anything. The "Skull-Brain" view of the character was far from his comic origin, where the leader had light green skin (similar to Hulk) and giant, smooth, round, foreign cranium.

However, it seems that the "skull-brain" was a last-minute redesign, and the MCC leader initially had to look a little more like his colleague with big comics. What explained in an interview with Variety That he wanted to change the design to emphasize the inner monstrosity of the character, giving the audience a immediate feeling why Sterns wanted revenge for his huge brain mutation.

Thanks to the recent post on Instagram, however, the audience can now finally see the original "Big Head" design that has appeared directors. The longtime Marvel make -up artist (and Emmy's winner) shota Tim Buaharn has released a few photos behind the scenes of "The Brave New World", including a picture of himself playing a rubber leader, built for the film. The picture has been removed from his account since already multiplied on other social media.

Shota Tim Buachtarn served as a personal make-up artist of lead actor Anthony Mackie on the set "Brave New World", and was previously head of the Department of Makeup of the film Marvel "Shang-Chi and the legend of the ten rings", "Captain Marvel" and "Black Pan". He began his beginning as an artist of make-up on two of the films "Emmanuel in Space", a series of low-budget soft-core scientific flikes for Roger Kunman. This should only inspire respect.

In the photo above, Buacharern lies a fog on the pop head for the leader, and it can be seen that the original design was very, very different. It seems that Tim Black Nelson, once, once, will be equipped with a huge head, goat and wig, leaving the character to look more human.

As he explained, however, smooth, more comics-lodging design did not communicate the monstrosity of the character enough. A new practical apparatus was invented, and the leader was given a tortured skull. The NLA also admitted in an interview with diversity that he had improved the skull shell with some subtle CGI (perhaps to give an account of the glittering green eyes):

"We started with a fully practical version of it. You still see a lot of that practical job, in terms of prosthetics and boxing of that kind. was, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't, didn't Also out of putting. But again, it helped you to emotionally understand what drove it. "

Views of the "Brave New World" were generally negative, Including /Own of the MovieBut the complaints were less about the rejection of the film's comic book and more about It's generally cowardly policy. Would the leader of the big heads make the film better? We can only speculate.
