Stellar Transformations: Movie Stars of the 2010s explores stardom, performance, and their cultural contexts in ways that remind us of the alluring magic of stars while also bringing to the fore the changing ways in which viewers engaged with them during the last decade. Stellar Transformations looks at the roles stars played in the complex and turbulent decade of the 2010s, and in doing so will offer useful case studies for scholars and students engaged in the study of stardom, celebrity, and performance in cinema.
