Tilda Swinton looks completely different on the set of her new film, Trainwreck

SHE’S famed for her diverse film roles, but Tilda Swinton’s latest look for her new movie is quite unlike anything we’ve ever seen.

WHOA! We almost didn’t recognise Tilda Swinton for a minute there.

She’s known for playing a diverse range of roles, but this latest look is a first.

The 53-year-old actress has traded her edgy, androgynous appearance for a more feminine aesthetic. She stepped out on the set of her upcoming film, Trainwreck, in New York City wearing a brown wig, some serious eyeliner and a black pencil skirt that showed off her slim frame.
