Which actor is under this slightly creepy mask for Frank?

Who is under that man helmet?

Any guesses? Steve Buscemi? Matthew Lillard? Brad Pitt? Gary Busey? Nope. None of these.

In the first still from FRANK, we can clearly see Maggie Gyllenhaal and Domhnall Gleeson. But who is in the Moral Orel cosplay? That would be Michael Fassbender.

The film centers on, “a young wannabe musician, Jon (Gleeson), who discovers he’s bitten off more than he can chew when he joins a band of eccentric pop musicians led by the mysterious and enigmatic Frank (Fassbender) and his terrifying sidekick Clara (Gyllenhaal). The film is based on the memoir by Jon Ronson and is a fictional story loosely inspired by Frank Sidebottom, the persona of cult musician and comedy legend Chris Sievey, as well as outsider musicians like Daniel Johnston and Captain Beefheart.”

Lenny Abrahamson’s FRANK started filming this week, and also stars Scoot McNairy, Carla Aza and Francois Civil.
