The 61-year-old actress portrays an elderly character in her photos, using makeup and prosthetics to become unrecognizable. She features a bald head and oversized round glasses. In one image, she shows her torso, where added prosthetics give her a frail, aged look, complete with sagging, wrinkled skin around her chest, enhancing the character’s eerily realistic appearance.

In a full-body shot, Moore’s bare legs stand in stark contrast to the prosthetics, and she adds a humorous element to her unsettling look by cradling her dog against her chest.

She went even further by sharing another gruesome photo with fake blood covering her face and head. Moore captioned the post, “Spoiler alert 🚨 Been holding onto these gems from @trythesubstance and today feels like an appropriate day to share them. Happy Halloween from Elisabeth Sparkle 🧪.”

Fans quickly flooded the comment section with mixed reactions. One follower wrote, “That is haunting,” while another commented, “I’m so disturbed by this, so wrong, must forget…. 😂” A third remarked, “🎃 🥹 I got scared.”

One fan quipped, “Omg this is amazing 😂😂,” and another praised her, saying, “I still recognize you and I love your movie😍.”

Others expressed hopes that the Hollywood star would be recognized for her latest role. One user exclaimed, “You’d better get your Oscar for this! Much deserved!” while another shared a similar sentiment, saying, “I hope you win the Oscar for this!! ❗️❗️💯.”

In addition to the buzz surrounding her Halloween transformation, “The Substance” has generated interest among fans. In this new thriller, Moore portrays a fading celebrity who uses a black-market drug to temporarily transform into a younger, idealized version of herself.

The film also boasts a star-studded cast, including Dennis Quaid, Margaret Qualley, Gore Abrams, Oscar Lesage, and Christian Erickson. With its themes of identity, aging, and self-perception, “The Substance” has encouraged Moore to publicly discuss its message.

In a September 2024 CBS interview with Tracy Smith, Moore reflected on societal expectations regarding beauty and aging. The actress, who famously shaved her head for the 1997 film “G.I. Jane,” has since kept her hair at waist length.

Reflecting on that memorable moment, Moore said, “After I shaved my head, I think I just started to let my hair grow with the idea that you can have long hair if that’s what you want.” She added, “Who says that it’s not okay? And I’ve heard it many times. If I didn’t think I liked how I looked, then I would cut it.” She went on to connect this expectation to her own experiences in life.

When Smith asked how Moore feels when she looks in the mirror, she admitted that her feelings vary. “Some days I look and I’m like, Wow. That’s pretty good. And some days, I catch myself dissecting, hyper-focusing on, you know, things that I don’t like,” she explained.

Over time, Moore has learned to accept her insecurities, such as loose skin. Instead of fixating on what she dislikes, she emphasizes embracing her reality. “But, you know, it is what it is. So, I’m gonna make the best of what is, as opposed to chasing what isn’t,” she shared.

Another instance of Moore’s self-criticism involved her round face. She reflected, “I used to think, ‘Oh, like my face, it’s like, oh so, like, chubby. I have no angles. I have nothing.’ And then you’re like, ‘Yeah, but now it’s, like, loose!’ I wouldn’t mind some of that chubbiness back, in the right places!”

Reflecting on “The Substance,” Moore noted that the film challenges beauty standards, particularly in a scene where her character applies makeup before a date and then deliberately smudges it. She described the moment as emotionally intense, highlighting the common struggle of attempting to fix something only to end up making it worse.

She remarked, “For me, it’s one of the most heart-wrenching moments in the whole film. And it was at least 15 takes each time. And so, by the end, my face was raw,” referring to the emotional intensity of that scene.

Moore’s dedication to her on-screen role was evident during the film’s premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. In a recent interview with The Guardian, she expressed feeling a blend of anticipation and vulnerability.

She recalled sitting in the 2,000-seat theater, uncertain whether the film would resonate with audiences or if the intense scenes might be “too off-putting.” However, the audience reportedly enjoyed the film, and Moore expressed that she was “in shock” after their enthusiastic response.

Regarding her career, Moore finds it puzzling that her role in her latest film has been described as a “comeback,” emphasizing that she never really stepped away from acting. In response, she stated, “I’ll leave others to, like, identify or label it however they need to. As Michelle Yeoh said, ‘You were just on pause!'”
