The Stan original film sees the pop star and Australian Idol judge swap her signature top knot for combat-ready braids as she steps into the role of a fierce mixed martial arts champion.

The photos show Shark on set in Bangkok, dressed in sports bras and bruised makeup, posing alongside co-stars including Russell Crowe and George Burgess.

While news of her casting first surfaced earlier this year, the new images mark the first substantial teaser from the closely guarded production, which wrapped filming in Thailand and is now in post-production.

Back in January, Shark hinted at the project on social media.

“I’m in Bangkok for the next week to become a movie star,” Shark posted to Instagram, holding the film script.

A release date for The Beast In Me is yet to be announced.
