Two-Bit Matthews from The Outsiders
Goofy, lighthearted Two-Bit (brought to life onscreen by Emilio Estavez) is the ray of sunshine in the lives of Ponyboy Curtis and his friends, the titular Outsiders in S.E. Hinton’s breakthrough novel. When you’re constantly marginalized by the upper-crust Socs (pronounced so-sihez) on the other side of the tracks, sometimes a little humor is just what’s needed to get through a bad situation. Two-Bit is every bit as Greaser as the rest of his friends (although one might argue that Dallas outdoes the lot of them), but he lends a whimisical touch to his “tuff” getup with a Mickey Mouse T-shirt.
Petyr from What We Do in the Shadows
Petyr (Ben Fransham) is a main character in What We Do in the Shadows, a horror mockumentary about the lives of four vampires. According to Viago, he is 8000 years old. He resembles Nosferatu, making him the most terrifying out of the group. He sleeps downstairs in a stone coffin, and he hates to be disturbed. He turned Deacon into a vampire, and in the movie, he turns Nick into a vampire. Petyr prefers remains silent, but he is definitely judging you. Use black eyeshadow around your eyes and on your cheeks for the perfect gaunt look. For added detail, you can use a darker gray or blue to make the veins on his head.
Deacon from What We Do in the Shadows
Deacon Bruke is a main character in What We Do in the Shadows, a horror mockumentary about the lives of four vampires. As the youngest of the group, Deacon is rebellious and cares about being cool.

You can swap out the pirate shirt for the white tank top if you want to recreate the Deacon Dance.
Max Dillon from The Amazing Spider-Man II
Mild-mannered electrical engineer Max Dillon (Jamie Foxx) lived an uneventful life until one day, when he was rescued by his hero, Spider-Man. That was shocking enough, but then he fell prey to a freak accident at Oscorp Industries, which turned him into pure electrical energy! He became Electro, a pawn of Harry Osborn, who mobilizes Dillon’s starvation for attention against the city.
Gina Montana from Scarface

Gina’s Babylon Club outfit is all about gold metallics and classic smokey eye/red lip makeup.

Yeah Yeah from The Sandlot

When he hyped up the crew while making fun of Smalls, Benny pointed out Yeah Yeah runs like a duck and he’s still “part of the game, right?”. Being embarrassed, he only answered back, “Yeah”. Yeah Yeah likes to joke around, but he is a loyal friend in the Sandlot.
