British actor Adam Pearson is telling the stories about disability that he wants to see in Hollywood.
The 39-year-old, who lives with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), stars in A Different Man, a dark comedy inspired by his confident personality and written and directed by Aaron Schimberg.
In the film, set to be released September 20, Adam plays Oswald, an actor with facial disfigurement who is cast to portray Edward (Sebastian Stan), an aspiring actor with similar disfigurement, in a stage production based on Edward’s life.
