It appears that Gary Oldman, Garrett Hedlund, Jamie Bell and Willem Dafoe did such a good job of walking in the autumn/winter 2012 Prada menswear show, that the Italian label couldn't resist recreating the magic for their newest advertising campaign.

Captured by revered fashion photographer David Sims, the quartet has been shot in a "contemporary character study", according to the brand.

Described as "stylish men off screen as well as on", the actors pose against a cardinal red background for their 'performance' in front of the camera.

Brits Gary Oldman ( Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy ) and Jamie Bell ( Billy Elliot ) might represent a 28-year age gap, but were chosen by the luxury label because they are "influential icons of fashion" and "represent a cross-generational broadening of the face of Prada menswear."

The dramatic images - created to evoke a different archetype by each leading man - also overspill for Prada's eyewear campaign. - Telegraph
