The actress, 64, has recently ditched her signature long red locks for a shorter style — a sleek, shoulder-length lob.

When she shared photos from the premiere on Instagram, fans were quick to gush over her shorter hair. "That hair looks so good on you!!🔥" one user wrote. "Love the new hair🔥🔥," said another. A third wrote, "Hair is so chic! Like you! Can't wait to watch!" Sirens, which premiered on May 22, is based on Molly Smith Metzler's play Elemeno Pea and follows Devon (Meghann Fahy) as she sets off for the picturesque beach estate where her sister Simone (Milly Alcock) works for billionaire Michaela (Moore) after their father is diagnosed with dementia. When she arrives on the island, Devon becomes increasingly concerned about Simone's creepy relationship with Michaela, and Michaela's cult-like way of operating her estate. !
