Emma Stone Confirms One-Take On-Camera Head Shave for Bugonia

Overview

• The haircut scene was filmed in a single take with four cameras and no CGI, with Stone’s real hair visible on the car seats.
• Co-star Aidan Delbis performed the shave during the sequence.
• Stone said she focused on staying perfectly still to avoid ruining the lone take.
• Director Yorgos Lanthimos said he wanted Stone to keep the buzz cut after filming, which she declined.
• Bugonia opens in wide release today after a U.S. limited run on October 24, with UK cinemas debuting the film and promotional events including a bald-only screening in Los Angeles.
