Hollywood actor looks unrecognisable with long hair and a beard as he films new movie

He’s one of Hollywood’s most famous stars – but this actor looked absolutely nothing like himself on the Australian set of his new film.

Ryan Gosling looks so different in his new movie that he will leave fans doing a double take.

The Hollywood actor, 41, has been snapped on set of his latest flick The Fall Guy and is unrecognisable, reports The Sun.

Based on the ‘80s TV show of the same name, The Fall Guy sees Gosling taking on the role of Colt Seavers, a stunt man who moonlighted as a bounty hunter.

In behind-the-scenes pictures, the Canadian star is sporting long blonde hair and a thick, bushy beard.

With a backwards baseball cap perched on top of his head, Gosling can be seen standing on the rooftop of a multistorey car park.

He is thought to be wearing a ‘valet parking attendant’ costume in the scene.

It also stars British actress Emily Blunt, 39, and is due for release in 2024.

The original TV show, which ran from 1981 to 1986, was led by Six Million Dollar Man star Lee Majors and actresses Heather Thomas and Markie Post.

The movie’s director David Leitch has said the film will feature “fun and action”, adding that it will be released in the summer of 2024.

He told Collider: “It’s a reimagining of the show from the ‘80s, the late ‘70s, early ‘80s, starring Lee Majors.

“It’s about a stuntman who gets embroiled in some crazy drama outside of the movie business, and mayhem ensues.

“And so, there’s fun and action, and we’re trying to make a big summer movie with it.”

He added: “And Universal’s incredibly supportive, and Ryan’s been really collaborative on the material, and we’re starting shooting in October.”

Gosling is no stranger to changing his appearance for movie roles.

The actor was snapped in the summer with peroxide blonde hair as he shot the new Barbie film, which is due for release next year.

Gosling plays Ken in the flick alongside Margot Robbie, who is taking on the lead role of Barbie.
