Russell Crowe, known for his iconic bearded look, surprised fans by debuting a clean-shaven face in preparation for new movie roles. The actor, aged 59, shared a photo on Twitter showcasing his fresh-faced appearance with just a hint of stubble. This marked his first shave since 2019, revealing a younger version of himself compared to his recent bushy-bearded look.
In the image, Crowe sported a serious expression, donning gray-rimmed glasses and a black T-shirt. While he had not shaved since 2019, the last time he was seen clean-shaven was in 2012 during the promotion of 'Les Miserables.' Fans also recalled his smooth appearance as mathematician John Nash in 'A Beautiful Mind' back in 2001.
Despite maintaining a low profile in recent years, Crowe's new look hints at upcoming movie projects. Fans expressed their excitement, with one commenting that he looked '20 years younger instantly.' Another fan welcomed the change, stating that Crowe's nice face was hidden behind all the hair.
Although Crowe did not specify the movie role for which he shaved, he is set to portray Hermann Göring in the historical drama 'Nuremberg,' scheduled to film in Hungary soon. Additionally, he has roles in the Marvel movie 'Kraven the Hunter,' releasing in August, and 'The Beast in Me,' a film about an MMA fighter commencing filming this spring.
With his fresh shave garnering positive reactions, fans are eager to see how Crowe's new look will complement his upcoming on-screen performances.
