Brad Pitt, 61, officially aging backwards with bold new haircut
Brad Pitt appears to have discovered the fountain of youth after giving flashbacks to his younger career with a new hairdo.
The Fight Club actor, 61, embodied his iconic character, Tyler Durden, after he was spotted sporting a shaved head.
The star has lopped off his signature blonde locks in favour of a close cut similar to that of his son Knox, whom he shares with ex-wife Angelina Jolie.
He is still sporting stubble on his chin as shown in the snap, which was taken as he sat in a car rocking black sunglasses and a white jacket.
Pitt has shaved his head several times over his career, most notably for some of his biggest film roles.
He most famously braved the shave for his role in the adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's novel Fight Club, in which he played mysterious antagonist Tyler alongside fellow lead Edward Norton as the unnamed protagonist.
In 2004, the actor sported a buzzcut for his role in Mr & Mrs Smith, the film in which he met Jolie while still married to ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.
When he appeared in the 2014 war film Fury, Pitt also cut off his famous locks for the part of Wardaddy, where he had short, shaved sides and a pompadour on top.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, he sported flowing blonde locks for his role as Louis de Pointe du Lac in iconic 90s horror film Interview With The Vampire, but he is best known for his grown out, slicked back, and tousled looks we've seen in the likes of Ad Astra, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, and most recently, F1.
It was recently rumoured that Pitt will return to his role as stuntman Cliff Booth in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time in Hollywood for an upcoming sequel.
According to multiple US outlets, the acclaimed director is writing a follow-up to the 2019 hit, with David Fincher serving as director. More Trending
In a surprise move, the unnamed project will be coming to Netflix, meaning it may not get a cinematic release like the first film, which also starred Leonardo DiCaprio, Margot Robbie, Luke Perry, Damian Lewis, and Mikey Madison among others.
Variety reports that it is unlikely that Leo and Margot will return as Rick Dalton and Sharon Tate.
Once Upon A Time In Hollywood follows actor Rick Dalton (Leo) and his stunt double Cliff as they navigate the changing culture of Hollywood in the 60s, struggling to claim their place in the industry.

Stranger Things season 5 - What fans can look forward to, plus five predictions
The latest series of Stranger Things is due to be released later this year, with everyone talking about the highly anticipated release, including some predictions on how the horror series will finally come to an end Although the show's creators, the Duffer Brothers, haven't given too much away about what will happen in season five, they have dropped some exciting hints. But what exactly can Stranger Things fans expect in season 5? It's been almost 10 years since Stranger Things first graced our TV screens back in July 2016 becoming a huge Netflix hit but the show will be back for its fifth - and final - season later this year. We don't yet have an official date for the release of season 5, but we do know that well-known faces Millie Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Winona Ryder, David Harbour, and Jamie Campbell Bower will all return for the last series. And while most details about Stranger Things season 5 have been kept under wraps so far, the creators have been teasing fans with a few clues about what they can expect. Though Holly Wheeler (Nell Fisher) has not been a huge character in the show so far, new Stranger Things set pictures have prompted audiences to speculate about her increased involvement. The pictures in question show Vecna standing near Holly, hinting that she could become integral to his final plan, according to Screen Rant. But perhaps even more interestingly, season 5, episode 2, is titled "The Vanishing of...", leading many long-time fans of the show to note the similarity to the season 1 disappearance of Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) and speculate that the title could refer to Holly. If Stranger Things season 5 does see Holly become Vecna's next victim, Karen could become a much bigger character as she tries to find her daughter. And if the theories about Holly are correct, the Wheeler family may finally get more screen time and a bigger storyline. Producer Shawn Levy previously revealed that the Netflix series will bow out on a high with a more than satisfying conclusion. He told Total Film: "We don't want to be one of those shows that is flailing while it searches for a way to stick the landing … We really want to stick the landing". The show still has a lot of questions to answer - in particular how its main characters will finally defeat Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower). Given that Stranger Things season 4 ended with Max (Sadie Sink) still in a coma and the Upside Down creeping into the real world, it seems likely that the group will face even more challenging circumstances than ever, Screen Rant adds. Meanwhile, fans have been coming up with their chilling predictions after a short video teaser was released ahead of the Netflix TUDUM event which takes place today, Saturday May 31. One Buzzfeed user predicts that Eddie comes back: "Kas died via bat bites, like Eddie, but was resurrected as a half-vampire to eventually defeat Vecna himself. He also wielded a sword and shield, like Eddie, and they thought Vecna was defeated until Will said that he still felt him JUST LIKE IN THE CAMPAIGN. "The Duffers don't add details like that for no reason. Plus, I'm just holding out hope that Eddie comes back somehow. I refuse to believe that they just left him in the Upside Down, but who knows." While another suggests: "Eleven will definitely have to sacrifice herself to destroy the Upside Down forever." A third thinks there will be a twist unveiled, predicting: "I read a theory that Vecna is actually Eleven's biological father, and I can't get it out of my head." Another Buzzfeed user suggests: "I think that Max is going to be used as some sort of go-between for Vecna and Eleven, either for communication or even used as a puppet for battle." Meanwhile, one fan predicts: "I could see those lost to the Upside Down (Barb, Chrissy, Billy, etc.) coming back in some sort of spirit form to help defeat the monsters in the final battle." Since the clip was released, fans have been scratching their heads over what it could mean. The clip is unclear but seems to feature several overlapping sounds, including banging and radio static waves. It also includes someone's voice, but it is hard to make out before the note "can't transcribe message" pops up. All we do know is that viewers can expect film-length episodes in the latest series as it concludes the fan favourite show, and that its creators say they won't be disappointed.

The live streaming event will take place at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles and will be hosted by fan favourite Sofia Carson, best known for her roles in The Life List and Carry-On.

According to the streaming platform's website: "It is Netflix's biggest celebration of fandom and culture-defining storytelling — spotlighting movies, shows, stars and creators that fans around the world love." The first TUDUM event took place in January 2020 in Brazil as a "multi-title festival that celebrated Netflix's young adult content, drawing more than 50,000 fans over four days. " Since it's launch five years ago it attracted millions of views, especially in 2023 where 78 million people viewed the live event. Taking to YouTube, Lady Gaga teased fans with her attendance. Dressed in a black lace outfit, teamed with elbow-length black gloves, she shared with viewers: "Hi little monsters. I just wrapped Copacabana. I'm headed to Singapore and then I'll see you at..." Lady Gaga then simply flashed the name of the event as she smiled to the camera. Speaking to HOLA! ahead of the event, Sofia told the publication: "It's been a really exciting process and a really collaborative one with Netflix, which is always how it goes with them." She added, "I was invited to host about a month and a half ago and immediately got on creative calls with ideas that I wanted to bring to life with them." She continued: "As a performer, I've been so lucky to perform on some of the biggest stages in the world… but every time I get to do something that's a little bit different than what I'm used to, it's always a little nerve-wracking.' Sofia explains she was immediately involved in rehearsals and script writing once she agreed to take part in the global event. Now, with just a few hours until the hotly anticipated live show, Sofia will be finalising her jaw-dropping outfits.
