Unrecognizable Sienna Miller: From Boho Style to Retro Glam in 'Madden'!
SIENNA MILLER UNRECOGNIZABLE IN NEW ROLE AS CAROL DAVIS
The usually free-spirited and bohemian actress Sienna Miller has undergone a stunning transformation for her latest role as Carol Davis in David O. Russell's highly-anticipated sports drama film Madden. The A-lister, known for her roles in Foxcatcher, American Sniper, and The Lost City of Z, is almost impossible to recognize while on set with co-stars Nicholas Cage, Christian Bale, and Kathryn Hahn.
According to sources close to the production, Miller has been fully immersed in character, sporting a glamorous and retro look reminiscent of the 1960s. Her transformation includes a voluminous, curly blonde wig, beaded necklaces, and a stunning glimmering dress with a 60s-inspired print. The change is so drastic that it's making it challenging for fans to identify her.
The role of Carol Davis is particularly significant as she was married to the late Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis from 1954 until his passing in 2011. The team has remained in the Davis family, with their son Mark Davis taking over as owner after Al's death. Carol Davis is now a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and made headlines in 2020 when she helped christen the new Allegiant Stadium by lighting the Al Davis Torch Memorial ahead of the team's inaugural game.
The biopic boasts an all-star cast, with Cage starring as Madden, Bale playing Al Davis, and John Mulaney taking on the role of Trip Hawkins, the founder of Electronic Arts. The film's production has been shrouded in secrecy, but sources confirm that principal photography began on April 24, 2025, in Atlanta, Georgia.
Interestingly, Miller's transformation is not the only intriguing aspect of this project. Rumors have been circulating about the casting process, with Will Ferrell and Hugh Jackman initially in talks for the role of Madden before Cage was ultimately cast. Tom Hanks was also reportedly in discussions to play Al Davis, but Bale eventually landed the part.
The film's production has been a highly sought-after project, with many A-listers vying for roles. The fact that Miller has undergone such a drastic transformation only adds to the excitement surrounding this biopic. With its star-studded cast and fascinating true story, Madden is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated films of 2025.
Sienna Miller's breakout role came in 2004 when she played the love interest of Daniel Craig in Layer Cake. Since then, she has established herself as a versatile actress with a range of critically acclaimed performances. Her ability to transform into her roles is a testament to her dedication and skill as an actress.
The Madden biopic promises to be an epic tale of sports, family, and perseverance, with Carol Davis at its heart. With Miller's incredible transformation and the all-star cast, this film is sure to captivate audiences worldwide. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated project!
