Harris Had Wig Made For Appaloosa

APPALOOSA director/star Ed Harris had a toupee made for his character to wear in the western movie, because he's sick of playing bald men.


The follicly challenged star wanted his character Virgil Cole to have as impressive a head of hair as his co-star Viggo Mortensen.


But he decided to ditch the wig because it looked ridiculous on camera.


Harris admits, "I wish I had some versatile hair options.


"I actually had a hair piece made, and we screen tested it. I was pretty interesting looking."
