Fans have been left scratching their heads following the dramatic transformation. The film stars a sprawling ensemble cast.
ICONIC rapper 50 Cent and actor Jason Momoa look totally different after undergoing major makeovers as part of their impending movie roles.
Their make-overs left them completely unrecognisable, with onlookers asking who the usually very famous faces were following their new appearances.
While the likes of Christian Bale and Jared Leto regularly gain and lose a lot of weight for roles, 50 Cent and Aquaman star Jason Momoa have been spending hours in the make-up chair, by the looks of things.
They have both undergone transformations for the movie Street Fighter which is due to be released in theatres next October.

In his poster promo image, Jason has transformed into Blanka the beast and looks a million miles away from himself.
Gone is his trademark long dark hair and good looks, replaced by hooked claws and scruffy ginger mane and a beard.
He also looks to be giving Shrek a run for his money with a green-hued skin tone, too.
50 Cent plays boxer Balrog, but is appearing under his real name Curtis Jackson for his credit, rather than his stage name.
He has been documenting the process of getting in shape for the film, writing on TikTok: “I don’t expect you to understand my level of discipline but watch it, it’s entertaining.”
Other members of the cast include actor Noah Centenio, Andrew Koji, Orville Peck and Cory Rhodes.
Paramount Pictures has hinted about what we can expect from the film, sharing: “Set in 1993, estranged Street Fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) are thrown back into combat when the mysterious Chun-Li (Callina Liang) recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament: a brutal clash of fists, fate, and fury.
“But behind this battle royale lies a deadly conspiracy that forces them to face off against each other and the demons of their past, and if they don’t, it’s GAME OVER!”

Street Fighter first launched as a popular video game that was first launched in 1987.
50 Cent previously revealed he had undergone an intense fitness regime in order to get himself ready for the movie role.
This is far from the first film role for 50 Cent, after he has also starred in Get Rich or Die Tryin’, Streets of Blood, Dead Man Running, Den Of Thieves and Power.
