RENEE Zellweger was unrecognizable on the set of her new true crime drama The Thing About Pam. Dressed in a ‘fat suit’, the 52-year-old actress was photographed in New Orleans this week as she got into character as the convicted killer Pam Hupp.

It’s not the first time Renee has played the role of a heavier person for the big screen. In 2001, she played Bridget Jones after gaining a whopping 30lbs.

This time round though, Renee isn’t doing crazy diets as she has help with some extra padding for her new character. Renee also appeared to be sporting facial prosthetics to give her a bigger nose and wider jaw.

The Judy star was seen sipping from a large soda cup in jeans and a padded jacket. Renee is co-producing the six-episode series via her.
