Hollywood Heartthrob Jacob Elordi, 27, Debuts Longer Hair and Scruffy Beard – Photos

Since gaining fame, Jacob Elordi has kept his facial hair minimal — until now. During a recent public appearance, the actor debuted longer hair and a beard, sparking mixed reactions from fans.

On November 29, 2024, fans got a glimpse of Jacob Elordi’s transformation over the past few months. The star attended the opening ceremony of the 21st Marrakech International Film Festival.

Elordi, serving as a jury member, also appeared on the second day of the tribute ceremony for Sean Penn in Marrakech, Morocco. The 27-year-old’s new look — featuring longer hair, a beard, and a mustache — quickly became a topic of discussion online, with some saying he looked like a completely different person.

One person, sharing an old gif of the actor after seeing his current image, remarked, “Bro doesn’t even look like the same person anymore,” while a shocked X user exclaimed, “Oh my god what happened to him- :(.”

Another commenter theorized, “[Having a] mustache makes you look very old than [a] beard—keeping both will make you look 30 in your 20s.” An Instagram user echoed the sentiment, saying, “[He] aged himself about 30 years.”

Not everyone thought the beard was flattering. One person stated, “This is the first time I’ve seen a beard that doesn’t suit someone.” Another unimpressed user commented, “He looks like a cult leader.”

“He looks homeless tho [sic],” one Instagram user noted, while another said, “Nope, get rid of it.” A displeased fan wrote, “Please, no. No need to cover that pretty face.” Another remarked, “The only man in the world that doesn’t really look that good with a beard.”

Adding crying emojis, one fan lamented, “He looks twice his age oh god not the thumbs up as well 😭😭.” One commenter suggested that Elordi’s look was “A failed attempt at looking more like a man than a teenager.”

After seeing before-and-after photos of the star, someone else said, “I think it makes him look older and makes his nose pointer. Go back to the clean shaven. [sic]” Another fan complained, “He aged 20 yrs with that scruff..I [sic],” while someone else declared, “NO. He looks ridiculous.”

One emphatic commenter demanded, “SHAVE IT OFF.” However, not everyone shared these negative opinions.

A fan wrote, “He looks better and more handsome with the beard,” while another added, “Personally I think it looks good on him.”

For years, Elordi had maintained a clean-shaven look that many felt suited his age. In late November 2018, his dimples were prominently on display as he smiled on the set of “The IMDb Show.” At the time, he received the IMDb STARmeter Award in the Breakout Category for his role in the show.

By 2021, he was still clean-shaven when he appeared on season 19 of “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

Two years later, on April 27, 2023, he maintained the same look while attending Tiffany & Co.’s event celebrating the reopening of its New York City flagship store, The Landmark.

However, by October 2023, his hair had grown longer, and he began sporting light scruff on his upper lip and chin during an appearance on season 72 of the “Today” show.

The scruff disappeared shortly afterward when he attended “Saltburn’s” premiere in Los Angeles, California.

That same month, he seemed to be experimenting with growing his beard as he attended the GQ Men of the Year Party at Bar Marmont.

Beyond his evolving style, Jacob Elordi is known as an actor, writer, and producer.

The Australian-born star’s 2024 projects include “Oh, Canada,” “On Swift Horses,” and “See You at 5.” Many fans also recognize him from his roles in 2023’s “Priscilla,” the series “Euphoria,” “Saltburn,” and other notable works.
