The Dude's gone dapper: Jeff Bridges looked almost unrecognisable as he arrived in London on Wednesday (right) sporting a very different look from his usual appearance
In the place of what has become his trademark scruff beard and laid-back long hair, the actor boasted a suave clean-shaven look.
His unruly grey locks had been cut into a smart side parting, while his relaxed approach to menswear had also been given an update, with the star sporting a smart shirt, cardigan and navy trousers.
His beard may have gone but Bridges' winning smile was still in place, with him flashing his grin at fans as he headed to check in after flying in from the Cannes Film Festival.
The star's new look was more in tune with his 1980's hey-day, when he dazzled audiences with his rugged handsome looks in films such as Against All Odds and Jagged Edge.

Hollywood hippy: The star has rocked his trademark laid-back look for the last two decades, and stays clear of the limelight when he's not promoting a new project
His new look may have to do with his new role in the West End production, Off The King's Road.
He plays a top LA psychiatrist who gives his depressed client in London advice via video calls.
Bridges, longtime friend of the show's author Neil Koenigsberg, got involved with the production at Jermyn Street Theatre following successful runs in New York and Los Angeles.

He insists he's happiest when he is at home with his wife, Susan Geston, who he has been married to since 1977.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, he admitted: 'I consider myself a lazy guy, but I do a bunch of stuff, and I'm so busy that in my downtime, I like to be with my wife, who I'm just madly in love with.
'We've been married 37 years, and it keeps getting better and better and more fun. I don't have too much time to jam with the rest of Hollywood.'
