Maestro’s Prosthetic Nose Justified By Bradley Cooper After Jewish Stereotyping Accusations

Bradley Cooper speaks out about the decision to use prosthetics in his recent movie Maestro. Starring, co-written, and directed by Cooper, Maestro is a biographical drama that chronicles the life of famous composer Leonard Bernstein with a focus on his marriage to Costa Rican-Chilean actress Felicia Montealegre. The award-winning Carey Mulligan played Montealegre, while other brilliant acts like Maya Hawke, Sarah Silverman, and Matt Bomer also star in the movie. Following the release of Maestro’s trailer, many viewers were unsatisfied with Cooper’s prosthetic nose, arguing it leaned into negative stereotypes.
