Kim Kardashian was spotted bringing full Las Vegas glamour to the set of her upcoming Netflix comedy The Fifth Wheel on Wednesday, March 4, in Los Angeles.

The 45-year-old reality star and SKIMS founder dazzled in a bejeweled red-and-black corseted bodysuit, paired with long red gloves, a glittery cape, and sparkling black heels. 

Completing the look, Kardashian sported a feathered headpiece as she transformed into a showgirl for the film.

Her costar, Will Ferrell, 58, was nearly unrecognizable in a long blonde wig, a beard, black leather pants, a sheer-sleeved shirt, and silver rings on each finger. 

The pair filmed an outdoor scene featuring a purple car labeled with Ferrell’s character name, “Brad,” and were seen interacting on a sidewalk outside a venue.

The Fifth Wheel also stars Nikki Glaser, Brenda Song, Fortune Feimster, Jack Whitehall, Casey Wilson, and Scott MacArthur. 

The female-led comedy follows a group of high school friends attempting to reconnect during a weekend in Las Vegas, only to have their plans upended when a glamorous outsider, played by Kardashian, enters the mix.

Kardashian and Ferrell are not only starring in the film but also serving as producers. The movie is directed by Eva Longoria and is being filmed in Los Angeles. 

Netflix released the first official image of the cast in January, showing Kardashian, Glaser, Feimster, and Song posing on the back of a truck.

This marks Kardashian’s first leading role in a feature film. She previously appeared in Hulu’s legal drama All’s Fair as lawyer Allura Grant, as well as the recent season of FX’s American Horror Story, portraying publicist Siobhan. 

Despite receiving mixed reviews for All’s Fair, Kardashian has said she embraces addressing criticism head-on and quickly, a philosophy she also applies to her SKIMS brand.
