'Fosse/Verdon': Accuracy of FX's new series is reflected in Michelle Williams and Sam Rockwell's stunning transformations

Michelle Williams traded her platinum pixie for fiery bob curls to play Gwen Verdon and Sam Rockwell adapted Bob Fosse's 'amoeba' technique to dance like him in FX's 'Fosse/Verdon'

FX's highly anticipated limited series 'Fosse/Verdon' is slated to release on April 9 and the first trailer which premiered at the 91st Academy Awards was enough to convince us that it is a must-watch. All thanks to the stunning transformation of award-winning stars Michelle Williams and Sam Rockwell who will be starring as Gwen Verdon and Bob Fosse.

The transformation was so convincing that that when Michelle Williams came on the screen as Gwen Verdon, many thought it was Verdon herself. The Broadway star's signature curly red hair replaced Michelle Williams' platinum pixie and fans freaked out. "Michelle Williams looks more like Gwen Verdon than Gwen Verdon looked like Gwen Verdon," a Twitter user commented on the show's first look.
