George Clooney Ditches the Gray for Broadway Debut
George Clooney, the silver-haired Hollywood icon, has traded his signature look for a darker shade. The reason?
He’s preparing to take Broadway by storm in Good Night, and Good Luck, reprising his role as Edward R. Murrow from the acclaimed 2005 film.
Since Murrow was decidedly less gray than present-day Clooney, the actor has dyed his hair brown for the part.
Currently residing in New York City for rehearsals, Clooney has been spotted sporting the new ‘do, though he often attempts to conceal it with a hat. However, a few eagle-eyed fans have captured glimpses of the change and taken to social media to express their opinions – and it seems most prefer the silver fox.
Reactions on X (formerly Twitter) range from “He looks ridiculous” and “That’s a bad look on him” to more sentimental pronouncements like, “I know it’s just for a role but George Clooney giving up his silver fox locks is devastating.” One user simply stated, “It just feels weird seeing George Clooney with brown hair.” Clearly, Clooney’s gray hair has become synonymous with his image, making the transformation a jarring sight for some.
