Saruman is probably one of those characters we’re not supposed to like (given his tendency to screw the good guys over), but he’s played by Christopher Lee, who is officially one of the coolest guys ever. After all, he got around with notable roles in several big franchises, including Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. Worn at Antwerp Con, Faithless12‘s costume features an accurate staff and a cool wig with gray-to-white gradation as the hair “grows” further from the face. That detail from the movies often gets ignored, but here it looks fantastic and foreshadows Saruman’s abdication as “the White.” In addition, the eye globe in his hand is a nice touch.
