Jim Parsons plays Henry Wilson, a sleazy agent, in Ryan Murphy’s Hollywood on Netflix, and the man he portrayed had a receding hairline. That means that the Big Bang Theory star had to do the same.
How was he going to get that look when he has a full head of hair? Is he going to shave the top of his head? Nope. The makeup department is going to give him a bald spot.
The actor showed us how they did it, and it takes a lot more effort than you would think. So much so, I think he should have just shaved it off.
When it comes to his character, I didn’t see Sheldon Cooper. That is the good news. The bad news is all I saw was Pee Wee Herman. Actually, it was more like Paul Reuben when he was on Murphy Brown.
When it comes to the mini-series, it is an enjoyable binge. It really captured the feel of the era even though the drama took a lot of liberties with the truth. Then again, who hasn’t? After all, that is what Hollywood is all about.
