• Kim Kardashian’s latest Skims product got the Hollywood roast of a lifetime when Sir Anthony Hopkins spoofed her face wrap with a chilling Hannibal Lecter impression. The Oscar winner’s viral video sent fans—and the Kardashians—into hysterics as the internet declared it an instant classic.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (TDR) — Leave it to Sir Anthony Hopkins to turn high fashion into high theater. The 87-year-old Oscar winner channeled his iconic Hannibal Lecter character to playfully mock Kim Kardashian’s new Skims Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap—and the internet cannot get enough.

In a viral Instagram video posted Thursday, the Silence of the Lambs star donned the nude-colored sculpting wrap around his head, pairing it with a loud Hawaiian shirt and his trademark slurp for dramatic effect.

“Hello Kim, I’m already feeling 10 years younger,” Hopkins intoned before signing off with a gleeful chill, “Don’t be afraid to come over for dinner.”

The cheeky clip was directed squarely at Kardashian, whom he tagged in the post. The caption? Classic Lecter: “Thank you, Kim. Don’t be afraid to come over for dinner.”

Kardashian, 43, took the roast in stride, reposting the video to her Instagram Story with the all-caps response: “I’M SCREAMING!!!!!” Her sister Khloe, equally tickled, chimed in with “Let’s gooooooooooo @skims @kimkardashian.”

Hollywood Reacts: “Genius”

The fashion-meets-cinema crossover drew instant celebrity reactions. Gwyneth Paltrow called the moment “Genius.” British actress Amanda Abbington added: “A legend. A true and phenomenal legend.”

Even fans were in on the fun.

“THIS is why the internet was invented,” one person commented. Another wrote: “State of the world in shambles, people dying … Kim: New Hannibal Lecter nylon face wrap just dropped!!!”

Kardashian’s Skims brand, which she co-founded in 2019, launched its first face product this week: the £33 ($42 USD) Sculpt Face Wrap. Described as a “face innovation” with “collagen yarns for ultra-soft jaw support,” the wrap aims to sculpt and support the lower face area—though social media had other interpretations.

“What in the Hannibal is this?” one commenter asked under the Skims product reveal.

The Lecter comparison was inevitable. In the 1991 thriller, Hopkins’ character famously wears a muzzle mask to keep from biting people. The mask—chilling and unforgettable—became part of pop culture’s visual lexicon. That Skims’ new wrap echoes that look? Unintentional, perhaps, but undeniably meme-worthy.

Viral Victory

The clip’s success speaks to both the internet’s hunger for levity and Skims’ uncanny ability to stay in the cultural conversation—even when that conversation includes a cannibal.

Hopkins, who won an Academy Award for his portrayal of Lecter, delivered his tribute with gleeful mischief, once again proving that at nearly 90, he remains as sharp as ever.

When an Oscar winner turns your shapewear into a cinematic moment, is it a roast—or the best PR move of the year?
