George Clooney, 64, recently made his Broadway debut in Good Night, and Good Luck, portraying iconic journalist Edward R. Murrow. For the role, he temporarily ditched his trademark silver hair, dyeing it a much darker shade—a change that sparked mixed reactions from fans.

During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Clooney shared how his wife, Amal, responded to the dramatic shift: “She said it’s funny,” he revealed, adding with a laugh, “She’ll be glad when it’s gone.”

While the new look may fit the character, Clooney hinted that he’s just as eager to return to his natural style.

During the interview, Seth Meyers couldn’t resist a playful jab:
“It looks great on stage, but off-stage it looks like you’re trying to get away with something.”

Clooney, never missing a beat, responded with his trademark humor:
“It’s horrible. It looks like you’re going through some sort of midlife crisis. I’m 64—midlife is a little stretch.”

Still, despite Clooney’s good humor, fans have been vocal about their concerns. Some took to social media with comments like, “Poor George.”

Others admitted they barely recognized him, with one user writing, they had to do a double-take because he doesn’t even look like Clooney.

• “That’s Clooney??”
• “Ya, I was about to say. Could’ve sworn I saw him last year, and he didn’t look this.”
• “He looks like his dad.”

Getting older is natural — even for Hollywood legends. Fans just hope Clooney keeps embracing it, silver strands and all.
