Marfan Syndrome Meets Hollywood
Javier Botet is a Hollywood star though you probably had no idea who he is when his makeup is off. He portrays creature roles in various horror, mystery, and fantasy films, including “The Conjuring 2,” “The Mummy,” and “Insidious: The Last Key.”
One of Botet’s trademarks is his skinny, tall, and flexible physique, allowing him to perform various tricks and stunts. In a talk with BBC, he opened up that he has Marfan syndrome and has been flexible all his life because of this.
