Jennifer Lawrence says 'absolutely f—ing not' to Mystique transformation again

Jennifer Lawrence told Allure she has no interest in returning as Mystique, citing the grueling eight-hour makeup sessions. She said the body paint and glue were cold and ticklish, and that the experience tested her patience and sleep deprivation. The role, which she played four times from 2011 to 2019, also damaged her hair from repeated dyeing. She did not rule out other prosthetic work entirely, but called this particular transformation a never again.
