Robert Downey Jr. appeared completely transformed in recently released photos from the set of his upcoming series, The Sympathizer.
In photos obtained exclusively by Page Six Saturday, the award-winning actor, 57, was seen with his hair completely shaved while wearing a black zip-up hoodie, blue sweatshirt and white T-shirt.
The photos were taken while the cast and crew took a break from filming to have lunch on set.
The bald look, however, wasn’t the only makeover Downey got while doing the show, according to the photos.
The ‘Iron Man’ star was also spotted walking the set shirtless, sporting a medium-length brunette hairstyle and visible chest hair.
Downey looked in these photos to have lost some weight as his ribcage was showing.
The “Due Date” star has also been spotted in the past he looks unrecognizable in a bald red wig.
The reason why Downey’s look keeps changing in photos from the set is because he reportedly plays multiple supporting roles on the HBO drama.
According to the Hollywood Reporterthe “Sherlock Holmes” star plays an up-and-coming congressman from Orange County, California, a CIA officer and the director of a movie.
“The Sympathizer” centers around a half-French, half-Vietnamese man who served as a spy for communist forces during the Vietnam War, via IMDB. Australian actor Hoa Xuande was cast in the lead role.
In November, Downey gave fans a glimpse of his new look at a red carpet event.
The ‘Avengers’ star attended the premiere for his film ‘Sr’. the time with a shaved head.
Before leaving, Downey shared on social media that he had his children, Exton, 10, and Avri, 8, help him with the transformation.
“I don’t want to wear a bald cap, so will you shave my head?” the ‘Dolittle’ star asked his children in the clip, before jokingly asking what he owed them for the haircut.
Downey captioned the playful post, “The things we do for our jobs… and our kids. The #Sympathizer set is ready.”
