Tilda Swinton, Chameleon: A Retrospective Of The Most Immersive Actress In The Biz

While Amy Schumer is sure to be the name on everyone’s lips in light of today’s release Trainwreck, the comedian’s illustrious, elusive co-star Tilda Swinton also deserves a moment of your undivided attention.

The British Oscar winner has worked with the likes of Wes Anderson, the Coen Brothers, and Jim Jarmusch, and she can often be found hanging out with her BFFs George Clooney and Brad Pitt. Her work ranges from dark, resonating indies like We Need to Talk About Kevin and young adult novel adaptations like The Chronicles of Narnia to prestige dramas including The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and I Am Love. What makes Swinton so interesting to watch, however, isn’t necessarily her diversity of roles or undeniable versatility of talent, but her complete anonymity. In fact, there are times you have no clue you’re watching her.

In Amy Schumer’s debut feature, Swinton plays Schumer’s character’s no-nonsense editor Dianna, who is known for her harsh attitudes and even harsher deadlines. The actress is barely recognizable as an over-bronzed workplace pitbull, but even though we haven’t seen Trainwreck yet, we have a feeling Swinton will own it. Here are five times you could have blinked and missed the actress without realizing she was the one stealing the show.
