Former Home & Away star-turned-Hollywood actor Brenton Thwaites couldn’t look further from the fresh-faced teen heart-throb he rose to fame as.

Hollywood actor Brenton Thwaites stepped out on the red carpet at the TikTok Awards on Wednesday looking very different to when he first rose to fame.

The Australian actor flashed a grin at the camera at the event while sporting shoulder length hair, a moustache and a bushy beard.

It marked a major transformation for the star that’s gradually taken place over the years as she’s shaken off his clean-clut teen heart-throb image while carving out a space for himself in Hollywood.

Thwaites rose to fame on Aussie soap Home & Away before going on to score some major roles in Hollywood franchises like Pirates of the Caribbean.

In recent years the actor has been juggling his successful screen career with his ever-growing family.

In April, Thwaites took to Instagram to share that his partner Chloe Pacey was pregnant with their fifth child.

Along with a photo of him touching her baby bump, he wrote: “The eye of the storm. Me: have the baby already … Her: PO. open your eyes for once in a photo.”

He added: “#5. Five. One more than 4. F’n hell. So proud of you for being unapologetically you and a great mum/baby-maker! @chloepacey.”

Despite already having their hands full with their growing family, the Hollywood star even suggested that another could soon be on the way too.

He added: “#6 will be a walk in the park. Kidding (unless you’re keen?)”.

The happy couple has been together since 2015.

Meanwhile, Thwaites is best known for movies including The Giver, Gods of Egypt, and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

He also played the role of Dick Grayson in the HBO Max series Titans. The acclaimed show, which ran over four seasons, was based on the DC Comics superhero team, Teen Titans.

His latest project, How to Make Gravy, hits cinemas next week and is based on the iconic 1996 song, How to Make Gravy, by the Australian singer-songwriter Paul Kelly.
