Billy Elliot actor Jamie Bell looks very different as he transforms into Neo Nazi for new film

BILLY Elliot star Jamie Bell couldn't look more different as he transforms into a Neo Nazi for a new film.

The 33-year-old actor is world's apart from the ballet-loving character that saw him shoot to fame in 2000, when he was just 14 years old.

Jamie won a Bafta for his titular role in Billy Elliot, and he is now set to play white supremacist Bryon Widner in upcoming biopic, Skin.

A glimpse of his new look can be seen in the film's trailer, which shows the star with a shaved head and covered in tattoos - including several facial inkings.

Directed by Guy Nattiv, Skin follows the true story of Bryon, who was taken in by a gang of Neo Nazis following a troubled childhood.

As an adult, Bryon tried to escape the group with his wife Julie and their children, but they track him down and physically attack him for abandoning them.

In the trailer, Jamie gives a powerful performance as his character questions whether he could ever be forgiven for his dark past, with Vera Farmiga, and Dumplin's Danielle MacDonald also starring in the film.

Speaking about his role previously, Jamie said that Skin "posed the question 'if you have hatred in your heart but go through two years of treatment to remove the hateful ink from your skin, are you changed?

"And can you ever be changed fully?'"
