Adam Pearson, a British actor with neurofibromatosis, is hoping that playing a villain in a new film will change how people see him and his condition. Pearson, who has appeared in Star Wars: Rogue One and The Crown, has faced discrimination and bullying due to his appearance. In the new film, ‘The Electrical Life of Louis Wain’, he plays a sinister character. Pearson hopes that this role will help people see beyond his appearance and appreciate his acting abilities.
