The prompt behind this image
Copy the exact prompt behind Cinematic Actor Portrait Transformation, or open it in the studio and make it yours.
Using the provided reference image as the base portrait, transform the subject into a polished cinematic portrait of {argument name="target actor" default="Robert Downey Jr."}. Keep the same chest-up studio composition, direct eye contact, white sweatshirt, moody blue background, and warm orange side/rim lighting. Change the facial identity, haircut, and facial hair to match the target actor: shorter styled hair, trimmed goatee/mustache, sharper features, and a more refined naturally realistic look. Maintain realistic skin texture, professional portrait lighting, shallow depth of field, and high-end editorial finish. Do not add text, props, logos, or extra people.
