Both the film and beauty worlds were in awe when Cara Delevigne shaved her head for a difficult acting role. 

The former it-girl recently wrapped up filming Life In A Year, in which she plays a woman suffering from cancer.

The star has opened up about how it felt to play such a harrowing an emotive role.

'It was so important to be as focused as possible because it was the most intense and difficult role I have ever played,' the model-turned-actress told The Daily Telegraph.

'It was very important to spend most of my time trying to learn about what it would be like to have cancer and putting myself in those situations.'

The role also prompted Cara to stay sober during the six weeks of filming.

'It was a very dark six weeks because I was thinking about death every second of every day.'

'So if I wasn't’ completely clear headed it could have got very dangerous and I could have gotten sucked into massive depression.'

Life in a Year is due in cinemas in 2018.
