In 10 Cloverfield Lane, Emmett DeWitt (played by John Gallagher, Jr.) was hired prior to the events of the film by Howard to help him build an underground bunker on his property.  When Emmett witnesses a dangerous otherworldly event, he goes immediately to the one place he will be safe and Howard reluctantly allows him to remain in the bunker after Emmett forces his way in, resulting in his broken arm.  However, when Emmett and Michelle become closer and begin to question Howard’s motives and mindset, things take a dark turn for everyone in the bunker.  Emmett wears relaxed jeans, a grey tank top, and plaid overshirt throughout most of the movie.

Anthony is the blue Wiggle and a founding member of The Wiggles. Out of all The Wiggles, he’s the only one who’s stayed for all 30 years they’ve been around.

Akane Hino (voiced by Asami Tano and Colleen Ann Villard) is one of the main characters of the anime series Smile PreCure!  Akane’s alter ego is Cure Sunny, who controls the power of flames and fire.  Akane has red hair and eyes, and is typically seen in an orange sweater with yellow intersecting lines and red pockets, jeans, and red flats.  If you are feeling crafty, you could always take some fabric paint to an orange tunic to make it more closely resemble her actual outfit.  As Cure Sunny, Akane’s hair becomes orange and much longer and she sports an orange and yellow outfit.  Finding a cosplay outfit for Akane’s alter ego can be difficult, especially at an affordable price, but if you are willing to take some time to mix and match other pieces and layer them together, you can achieve a similar look. Layer an orange corset or bustier over a ruffled tank top to recreate the epaulets of Sunny’s uniform, and use costume spats to make your heels and thigh high stockings look more like her costume boots.  Tie a yellow ballet skirt, but leave it open, over an orange mini to evoke the multi-layered outfit she wears in the series.
