ANTHONY HOPKINS REVEALS FACIAL HAIR DISPUTE ON ‘WOLFMAN’ SET: Anthony Hopkins nearly dropped out of The Wolfman after a dispute with studio executives about his facial hair.

He explained, “They wanted me to shave it off because studio policy is not to have facial hair, which is crazy when you’re doing a film in 19th-century England about a wolfman. I said, ‘Well, the beard stays or I go.’ It got to that point.”
