Johnny Depp has always been known in Hollywood for impressively being able to transform into all kinds of out-of-the-box characters, but photos of him in his latest role have him looking almost unrecognizable.

In his upcoming new film, Day Drinker, the award-winning actor donned eye-catching silver hair and wore piercing blue contacts to step into his latest character, looking completely different from his usual mysterious and rugged self. However, despite the wardrobe and makeup for his new role turning him into a new person, some members of his fanbase could actually see what it would be like if Johnny chose to go grey, and they were into it. Read more about his transformation for his new performance below.

Johnny Depp Photographed With Silver Hair And Blue Eyes For Upcoming Film Role

The Pirates of the Caribbean star is currently filming one of his first major Hollywood productions since his very public and dramatic defamation trial against his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard. The movie is named Day Drinker, an action thriller directed by Marc Webb and written by Zach Dean.

Other members of the cast besides Johnny include Penélope Cruz and Madelyn Cline. The movie will reportedly be released next year, as the production is still filming in Spain, but high-quality clips and photos of Johnny in full hair and makeup were recently shared on social media in a 'first look' at the film.

In one of the clips, the Dior ambassador can be seen standing in a suit, donning silver hair and blue contacts in his eyes. The look for this character is drastically different from his everyday rugged style and long brown hair. The actor also had a grown-out grey beard, and it looks so realistic that it's difficult to tell if he actually grew it out in real life or if it's fake.

The images of Johnny in character shook his fanbase for several reasons, but they mostly couldn't get over how different he looked, and for many of them, how good he looked as a silver fox.

Fans React To Johnny's Transformation Into Character On Social Media

Many adoring fans of the Hollywood Vampires guitarist were not only surprised by the new film set photos of him but also really into the new look. When pictures of him in the film were posted to Extra TV's Instagram, several users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on his appearance.

"He actually looks better!" wrote one user, while another added that Johnny "looks much better like this."

"It's a good look," commented another fan.

"I like the salt-and-pepper look on him," added an Instagram user.

Numerous online comments state that the actor looks "unrecognizable" as his new character. There were also a large number of internet users who thought he looked like late actor Ray Liotta, who starred in several iconic 'tough guy' roles and sadly passed away due to cardiovascular disease in 2022.

Fans are eagerly awaiting more updates on the highly anticipated film as well as Johnny's acting comeback, and we'll be curious to know more about his new silver fox character as its release date draws closer.
