You beat me to it. Everyone knows you get Vin Diesel if you accidentally bleach The Rock. The wax museum artists should have known better.

That wax figure looks like a vampire version of The Rock was bitten by another vampire to make him even more pale.

artist Stéphane Barret had to rely on photos and videos to create the sculpture.

Did they? Because he doesn't look white in any of the results on Google

He looks white to me but I am not American so idk

"Whiteness" is pretty vague but...compare the skin tone on the statue to the pictures. It's not even close

[–] li10@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

It’s actually pretty close if you don’t account for the studio lights being blasted right at him in most photos.

If you look at the regular pictures then it’s obvious what his actual skin colour is though.
