Hugh emerged with the unique look a few months back when he debuted his new bald head on Instagram, accompanied by a curly beard and moustache to complete his pirate-like appearance. The new look was for Hugh’s role in Pan – the latest adaption of the classic fairytale Peter Pan, which he worked on alongside Amanda Seyfried and Rooney Mara.

After several months of filming and a summer spent posting Instagram snaps of his semi-hirsute appearance, Hugh has finally posted a video of himself getting his beard shaved off and returning to his bare-chinned appearance.

At the moment, Hugh’s still got a shaved head up top but no doubt he’ll soon get back into the hairier Wolverine look that he’s known for!
