Dakota Johnson appears completely unrecognisable as Marilyn Monroe in first-look images from Maggie Gyllenhaal's short film Flesh Impact, released this week. The 17-minute project explores alternate paths for the Hollywood icon and is timed to what would have been her 100th birthday earlier this summer.

Johnson plays Monroe at the height of her fame while Ellen Burstyn portrays an older version the world never saw. The film will premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September.
