Meet ‘A Different Man'

The film, premiering at the Sundance Film Festival, is already creating buzz among movie enthusiasts. Chris Bumbray from JoBlo got to catch this psychological thriller and he was all praises, rating it a solid 7 out of 10.
Star-Powered and Intense
‘A Different Man' showcases the acting prowess of Sebastian Stan, known for his role as Bucky/The Winter Soldier in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film also brings in the talents of Renate Reinsve, who blew audiences away with her performance in the Oscar-nominated ‘The Worst Person in the World', and Adam Pearson, who wowed crowds in another A24 release, ‘Under the Skin'.
From the Mind of Aaron Schimberg
The intriguing and thrill-packed narrative is the brainchild of writer-director Aaron Schimberg. If his name rings a bell, that's because he masterminded the acclaimed 2018 drama ‘Chained for Life'. In ‘A Different Man', Schimberg tells the gripping tale of an aspiring actor Edward, played by Stan, who undergoes a dramatic medical procedure to alter his appearance. But what starts as a dream soon spins into a chilling nightmare.
Bumbray's Review

Regardless, he appreciated the thoughtful commentary, humor, and the leading trio's noteworthy performances, particularly hailing Sebastian Stan's contribution as his best yet.
A24 and Killer Films Magic
