Succession star Jeremy Strong looked almost unrecognisable as he attended the Governors Awards held at the Ray Dolby Ballroom at Ovation Hollywood on Sunday.
The award winning actor, 45, best known for his role as Kendall Roy in the HBO series, debuted a new clean shaven appearance and darker locks.
Jeremy ditched his memorable moustache and usual stubble as he hit the red carpet in a stylish pale green suit with he layered over a crisp white shirt.
He also showcased darker hair instead of salt and pepper locks, which he styled into a quiff just weeks ago.
Jeremy was reunited at the star-studded bash with former co-star Kieran Culkin, 42, who played his brother Roman Roy.

It comes after Jeremy revealed his role in Succession had a worrying long-term impact on his mental health.
The actor explained that he ‘sometimes lost touch with joy’ while reflecting on his time playing the character on the Emmy-winning hit series.
‘It f***ed me up,’ he admitted in a recent interview with The Sunday Times before adding that he ‘doesn’t miss it.’
Since moving on from the role, the Golden Globe winner — who was previously criticized by his on-screen father, Brian Cox, for his unrelenting method acting — said he has found ‘joy’ in his life again.
‘I went on a silent meditation retreat last week,’ he continued. ‘I really needed it.’
He explained: ‘There’s so much noise and busyness now. I have opportunities that I only ever imagined.’
Jeremy also shared how healing the silent retreat was to his life and well-being.

‘I’ve rediscovered play,’ he said. ‘I sometimes lost touch with joy.’
The actor — who is known for being a dedicated method actor — was previously ‘overwhelmed’ by his role as Kendall, the wounded black sheep of the Roy dynasty.
During his chat, he admitted how relieved he was to leave the role and the show behind.
Because unlike his co-stars, he did not leave his character on the set and continued to embody Kendall even when he was off-camera and off the screen.
He previously told the outlet that he would imagine terrible things happening in his own life to mentally prepare for the role, which ultimately harmed his mental health.
Now, he said that even though Succession was a ‘gift,’ he is glad he no longer has to ‘carry Kendall’s struggle’ anymore and ‘doesn’t miss it.’

‘Listen, that show was an incalculable gift,’ Strong said about Succession and finally leaving his character behind. ‘The material a banquet. So I miss that.’
He continued: ‘But Kendall’s struggle was difficult to carry for seven years. And there’s just so much more I want to do.’
When asked if he would return to the role for a spin-off if the opportunity presented itself, he shut it down.
‘It’s not something I have any wish to do any longer,’ he said. ‘I’m aware it is one of the main chapters of my life, but I don’t miss it.’
