"There's a time-lapse video that was posted on IG some time ago, maybe back in 2022, of the process. It looks totally bonkers to me."

"This [original post] reminded me of Vecna from Stranger Things, which, from what I’ve seen BTS, spends some crazy time in the chair to get JCB ready."

Jamie had to get to the makeup chair at 3 a.m. to start the transformation process. Then, after 10-12-hour shoot days, he spent another hour getting all the makeup taken off.

In 2022, he told Variety, "I came in in character, wearing the character, so I'm sitting in the makeup chair very still, not really talking to anyone. Music is a big help for me. I find it to be a very visceral experience. I had a few records that I was just constantly spinning on repeat as I'd been building the character I'd had on anyway, so there was that, sort of, subconsciousness that was coming through."
