Anthony Hopkins Promotes Kim Kardashian's Brand with "The Silence of the Lambs" References

You can't deny the actor who played Hannibal Lecter has a sense of humor.

Anthony Hopkins posted a video on Instagram showing him trying on SKIMS products.

No, it's not the shapewear the brand is famous for thanks to Kim, but a face-lifting bandage mask. Not only does it inevitably evoke associations with Hannibal Lecter's mask from "The Silence of the Lambs" when worn by Anthony Hopkins, but the actor delivers the line "Hello, Kim. I feel 10 years younger" while mimicking the intonations of his iconic character.
