Keanu Reeves is looking unrecognisable after shaving off his signature long hair and debuting a striking buzzcut. In more recent years, the John Wick actor has become more recognisable for his shoulder length dark locks. However, it's not an entirely new hairstyle for The Matrix 4 star who has previously styled a number of looks during his time in Hollywood. Of course his latest hair transformation is for a movie role.

Keanu, 56, shaved off his dark tresses to reprise his role Neo in the latest instalment of The Matrix franchise. The leading star has been out on location filming in Berlin, Germany for four months as cameras started rolling again amid the coronavirus pandemic. Fans will notice his latest look bares similarities to when his iconic character Neo wakes up in a human breeding facility in the 1999 movie.
