Kim Kardashian is embracing a glamorous new look for her latest acting role, transforming into a Las Vegas showgirl while filming scenes for the upcoming Netflix comedy The Fifth Wheel.
Photos from the set show the 45-year-old reality star and entrepreneur wearing a sparkling red-and-black corseted bodysuit paired with long gloves, glittering heels and a dramatic feathered headpiece. The elaborate outfit completes her showgirl transformation as cameras rolled during filming in Los Angeles.
Kardashian was seen shooting scenes alongside her co-star Will Ferrell, who appeared nearly unrecognizable in a long blond wig and beard. In one moment captured on set, Kardashian appeared to hand something to Ferrell while filming on a sidewalk near a venue.
The comedy, directed by Eva Longoria, follows a group of high school friends who reunite for a weekend trip to Las Vegas. Their getaway takes an unexpected turn when a mysterious outsider, played by Kardashian, joins them, forcing the group to confront their messy lives and unresolved tensions.
Kardashian is not only starring in the film but also producing it alongside Ferrell. The ensemble cast also includes Nikki Glaser, Fortune Feimster, Brenda Song, Jack Whitehall, Casey Wilson and Scott MacArthur.
The role marks Kardashian’s first leading part in a feature film, expanding her acting career after previous appearances in television projects like American Horror Story and the legal drama All’s Fair.
The Fifth Wheel is currently in production, though Netflix has not yet announced an official release date.
