Salma Hayek Will Play Bearded Woman
Ugly Betty executive producer Salma Hayek, who played prominently on screen in season one as Sofia Reyes, has signed on to play a bearded lady in the horror drama “Cirque du Freak”. She will play opposite star John C. Reilly.
Cirque du Freak is part of a vampire-based young adult book series, which in the United States was called “The Saga Of Darren Shan”. Here is the synopsis:
A young boy named Darren Shan meets a mysterious man at a freak show who turns out to be a Vampire. After a series of events Darren must leave his normal life and go on the road with the Cirque Du Freak and become a Vampire.
Reilly will play the vampire. Hayek, according to reports, will play Madame Truska, the bearded lady. Production begins in February.
Hayek, one of the creators of Ugly Betty (she was instrumental in the casting of America Ferrera), gave birth to a baby girl in September. This is her first acting job since then.
As fond as Hayek is of showing cleavage (and who am I to argue?), I wonder if any men will even notice her beard?
