While promoting her new film, Space Oddity — which focuses on a young man prepping for a one-way trip to Mars — the actress decided to lean into the theme. Playing off of the movie's title, Brewer opted to channel Ziggy Stardust, aka David Bowie, who has an album of the same name. Luckily, she took InStyle behind the scenes as she got ready for the big event.
