Here Are The Actors Behind These Famous Movie Villains

Rita Repulsa

Power Rangers fans will enjoy the 2017 reboot of the classic action series. The villain, Rita Repulsa, got a makeover for the film and is played by actress Elizabeth Banks. She wore a prosthetic suit that covered her whole body in order to give off the appearance that she had burnt skin.

Calypso

The Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest villain took the form of Tia Dalma and Calypso, an entity trapped inside the body of a woman. She was played by Naomie Harris. Getting into character involved some extensive makeup, but no prosthetics here. The freakiest part came from her enchanting accent and magical powers.
