Reneé Zellweger admitted on Monday's "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" that wearing her costume in NBC's upcoming crime thriller "The Thing About Pam" required "tons of Benadryl."


To play convicted killer Pam Hupp, Zellweger had to wear prosthetics and told Fallon, "I had a severe allergic reaction to the glue. It was just funny."

To get through a workday, the "Judy" star quipped that she required "plenty of Benadryl."

During the time period of the episode, Hupp is substantially heavier than Zellweger, which begins around the time Hupp's old friend, Elizabeth "Betsy" Faria, was slain on December 27, 2011.

Zellweger had to wear a fat suit in addition to the prosthetics, and the process took "approximately four hours and 20 or 30 minutes" to complete at the start of shooting. But, according to Zellweger, prosthetics designer Arian Titan "whittled it down to under three hours" at the conclusion of filming.

Zellweger appreciated her time in the cosmetic chair, despite how long it took. She advised Fallon, "You can phone your mom in the chair and have your Christmas shopping done."




According to Entertainment Tonight, the actor spent so long to turn into Hupp because "the aim is to be precise" with the outfit. Hupp was someone who "looks so familiar" to the viewer, according to Zellweger. So it was crucial for Zellweger to nail Hupp's physical traits so that the viewers could empathize with him.

In an interview with ET, Zellweger said that Hupp, who grew up in a tiny town in Missouri, got away with her crimes in part because of her appearance. Instead of recognizing Hupp for who she was, people "projected" who they imagined she was onto her.


While Zellweger's metamorphosis seems genuine, the decision to put a famous actress in a fat suit rather than a mid-weight actor in the part has sparked debate.

Ant Anstead quipped in an Instagram remark that his "smoke show" girlfriend Zellweger should "leave the wardrobe at work" in an Instagram caption that has subsequently been removed.

"The Thing About Pam" airs on NBC on Tuesdays at 10 p.m.
