I think the fan edit is way better. First of all, the red lips add some much needed contrast to her face. The original makes her all green except for her eyes, which are mostly white and black. The red helps make the green appear more significant and distinct. I think they should change the background too for the same reason.

Hiding the eyes does dehumanize her, but that's a good thing here. It makes her look sinister, and ascribes some character to her. The smile also helps. Her expression is so blank in the original that you can't get any idea of what this character is. The fan edit tells a story, where the original is just a person.

In the movie poster, I understand that the actor "chose to look right down the barrel of the camera to you, the viewer… because, without words we communicate with our eyes". The problem I have with it is that the thing she is communicating is not "I'm a wicked witch", but more "is this photoshoot over yet?" or "what shall have I for dinner?".

As well as her looking a bit indifferent, it also doesn't like the person next to her is actually whispering anything, because you typically use your hand to cup the space between the mouth and the ear for that, and the hand is too low down and too far away.

So I can see why fans would want to edit that original picture.

Who?

Yea, still don't know who she is, other than someone behaving like a child.

"Most offensive"? Oh give me a break. Her behaviour here is the only offensive element in this story.

Thanks for letting me know I don't want anything to do with you, and what show to not see.

Actors really do have majorly inflated sense of their importance in the world. You're nobody, sunshine.

Grow up.

That's a really dumb thing to get upset over. They also changed her mouth and the lip color. Like the original. I could understand if they edited her nose or some other features to be more "European," but they changed only what they needed.

And it looks better.

Lol this is a Nintendo-level response to your own fan(s)

So basically she's upset that she made a bad decision and people have corrected it for her? Also that's the most offensive thing she's ever seen? Really? What a fucking child.

I'd always assumed photographers and directors and producers made the kinds of decisions around "will the subjects eyes be visible or obscured". I didn't realize the actors made those kinds of calls.

I don't know if it just needs more jpeg but the original looks way better than the posted edit. Although I can see how a movie star would take offense to having their face edited out, I doubt the intent was to dehumanize. It does look like a bad version of the Broadway picture.

Saw the musical, though off Broadway. Didn't like the musical... maybe two songs, but that's it.

This will likely not be great, but probably will make money. Both performers seem like annoying narcissists to me.

"Fans"

Fan*

People do shit like this solo, typically.

Shouldn't it be "palate"? Or is she referring to the colour swap?
