Former '90s sitcom heartthrob is unrecognizable in latest snaps... but can you guess who it is?
This actor stole hearts around the globe thanks to his charming smile and silly personality in one of the most popular shows on the planet.
But decades on, he looked extremely different in a series of photos shared to his social media... so can you guess who it is?
The actor famously starred as D.J. Tanner's boyfriend Steve Hale on Full House throughout the '90s.
The now 49-year-old started his acting career on ABC's Life Goes On before he landed a small role in CBS' The Family Man.
But his breakout part came in 1991 when he was cast as Candace Cameron-Bure's love interest Steve in Full House.
He portrayed D.J.'s fun-loving boyfriend for four years until 1995, when he left the show.
During that time, he also made his film debut when he voiced the titular character in Disney's 1992 animated classic Aladdin.
It's the one and only Scott Weinger! He reprised the role for the sequels The Return of Jafar and Aladdin and the King of Thieves, as well as the spin-off show Aladdin: The Series.
After Full House ended, Scott went on to star in the TV movie The Shaggy Dog, the 2003 flick Shredder, the sitcom What I Like About You, and the thriller Roulette.
Over the years, he has also dabbled in writing, and he served as a writer and producer for the show 90210 from 2009 to 2013.
He also wrote episodes for the sci-fi sitcom The Neighbors, Black-ish, and The Muppets over the years.
To fans' delight, he returned as Steve in the Full House reboot Fuller House in 2016, but after that ended in 2020, Scott's acting career slowed down.
Instead, he seemed to switch his focus back to writing.
Most recently, he penned an episode of the Hulu show Paradise.
He wed fellow TV writer and producer Rina Mimoun in 2008, and together, they welcomed a son, named Misha, in 2009.
Scott (seen left in Full House and right recently), now 49, was cast as Candace Cameron-Bure's love interest Steve in the popular show Full House in 1991
Since then, he's been focused on writing and raising his son, Misha, who he welcomed with wife Rina Mimoun in 2008
Scott, who lives in California, seems to be a fiercely dedicated father and often shares snaps with his son on his social media.
And while he certainly looks different from the teen who would raid the Tanners' fridge in Full House, he's still got his handsome looks.
Following Bob Saget's passing in January 2002, Scott spoke about their relationship in an emotional tribute shared to X, formerly Twitter.
'Bob Saget was more than a friend. He was a big brother to me,' he wrote.
'Nobody ever made me laugh harder, the kind of laughter where your ribs are sore the next day.
'He was also a wonderful human being who never missed a chance to say "I love you" to the people he cared about.'

Angel Reese ripped by fans after making bizarre Michael Jordan claim ahead of her first signature shoe release
Angel Reese's expectations for her new signature shoe couldn't any higher. Not content for the new line from Reebok to be worn by basketball players, the second-year Chicago Sky power forward instead wants her shoe to be ubiquitous, like those of another Windy City basketball player star. 'I want people to wear the Angel Reese 1s everywhere and just to be a household name,' Reese told recently told Elle. 'Just like how they wear Jordans everywhere.' Obviously Reese would need a few hundred million in sales if she's going to approach Michael Jordan 's success in this area. Now a billionaire, his Air Jordan line has been spun off by Nike into its own brand with the six-time NBA Champion as its chairman. Air Jordan shoes were so sought after that thieves regularly stole them from the feet of victims in the 1980s and 90s. As recently as January, nearly 2,0000 pairs of Air Jordans valued at nearly $500,000 were swiped from a train in Arizona. Whether or not Reese's line from Reebok will inspire such extreme behavior is yet to be seen, but fans online are certainly skeptical. 'Stop playing,' wrote one, while several others responded to a X post on the subject by asking her to 'please stop.' Several respondents liked the shoes, which come in an array of colors, including pink. While one said they wouldn't consider the Reese 1 to be the next Air Jordan, they were quick to add the sneakers 'aren't bad looking.' Nike got a very positive response on Instagram, where the brand has been slowly trickling out photos of Reese wearing the shoes. One respondent included the sneakers' release date: 'SURPRISE!! September 18 it's go time.' But for all the positivity surrounding the Reese 1 release, the WNBA star continued to take criticism for putting herself in the same breath as Jordan. 'She might be the only person that deserves to be told to shut up and hoop,' one critic wrote. The original Air Jordans didn't have his famed 'jump man' logo, which came along later Another took a more lighthearted approach: 'I love her ambition but… you know what let me be quiet.' The sneakers are Reebok's second signature shoe released for a WNBA player, following a previous model for Rebecca Lobo years earlier. Reese described the sneakers to Elle as an extension of herself. 'My personality is me being unapologetically myself — that's what the shoes are as well,' Reese told Elle. 'The versatility of being able to wear the shoes on and off the court was the most important thing to me.'

Tracee Ellis Ross, 52, bares it all in new campaign while unveiling new body care line
Tracee Ellis Ross proved 52 has never looked better while stripping down for a fiery new campaign to announce her latest beauty venture. On Tuesday, the entrepreneur unveiled Pattern Body, the first body care collection from her brand Pattern Beauty, with a sizzling set of promo images that immediately set the internet ablaze. In the bold shoot, Ross, who recently made headlines for her wildly unconventional in-flight beauty routine, appears nude alongside another model, both glowing against a vibrant red backdrop as they embrace and laugh with radiant confidence. Another shot shows the Black-ish star seated cross-legged in a golden bodysuit, flashing her signature smile while surrounded by the brand's colorful new products. The five-piece line, which includes a body wash, exfoliating dry scrub, lotion, rich cream, and body oil, launches on August 21. Ross explained that expanding into body care has always been part of her vision since she founded Pattern in 2019. 'It's the reason I named the company Pattern Beauty and not Pattern Hair,' she told Elle. 'These products are for every body — every shape, size, color, and texture.' And while her decision to bare it all has fans buzzing, Ross insists it's about more than creating a viral moment. 'I want you to be able to use these products and remember who you are,' she said. 'Scrub, hydrate, and love it. I want that skin to pop, glow, and look like an expression and reflection of your soul!' Additionally, she told Forbes: 'Each of these products is anchored in my personal routine.' Underneath her post, Ross' celebrity pals and fans were quick to celebrate her new body care line. '[Three heart-shaped eyes,]' Jennifer Garner commented. Another wrote: 'I am OBSESSED!!! THE PACKAGING!!! ARE YOU KIDDING!!!' Underneath her post, Ross' celebrity pals, like Jennifer Garner, and fans were quick to celebrate her new body care line 'AHHHHH SO exciting!!! These campaign visuals look stunning,' a third gushed. Others praised the actress for tagging 'everyone who went into making this short video.' 'I think regular people and brands alike need to get used to seeing and understanding the immense work, time, and coordination that goes into these campaigns!!' one Instagram user wrote. A second commented: 'I'm so here for not only the products but how you all have each and every person involved credit and highlighted them. You don't see brands do that too often!'
