Mystery actor

[Click for a larger if not more helpful view.]

I couldn’t resist. But I’m guessing that someone will know who’s under wraps here. Leave your answer in the comments. I’ll drop a hint if one is needed.

Here’s a hint before I head out for a walk: when the bandages come off, he’ll have a new life and the face of a famous actor.

All is now revealed in the comments, with a link to a screenshot without bandages.

John Randolph?

I don’t know that name, but no.

I just had to look it up. Wow!
I never heard of this movie, but we sure know who that person under wraps is.

It’s Rock Hudson as Antiochus “Tony” Wilson in Seconds (dir. John Frankenheimer, 1966). It’s an extraordinary movie, now streaming at the Criterion Channel.

Here he is post-surgery, with his new face, with Richard Anderson as Dr. Innes.

Oops, and d’oh: John Randolph is the actor who played Arthur Hamilton, the character who becomes Tony Wilson. The actor's name just didn’t register for me. But I think that it must be Hudson under the bandages, as it’s a scene after surgery.
