George Clooney’s got a new ‘do.
The “Ocean’s Eleven” star debuted a dramatic hair transformation on Sunday while out to lunch with his wife, Amal Clooney.
The couple dined at celeb-loved eatery Raoul’s in New York City alongside their attorney and friend, Kevin Johnson.
Amal, 47, looked spring-ready in a cropped plaid jacket, oversized sunglasses, bell-bottom jeans and dramatic dangling earrings.
George, for his part, looked cool in a black leather jacket, beige chinos and Adidas sneakers.
The silver fox, 63, traded his signature salt-and-pepper locks for a head of dyed-brown hair ahead of his upcoming role on Broadway.
The A-list actor is set to play legendary journalist Edward R. Murrow in “Good Night, And Good Luck,” an adaptation from the 2005 movie of the same name.
George co-wrote, directed and starred in the 20-year-old film; however, he took on a supporting role as CBS President Fred Friendly.
This time around, the Oscar winner is taking the story to the stage and playing the lead.
The play, which George also co-wrote with Grant Heslov, opens on April 3 but will begin preview performances on March 12.
However, the actor previously told the New York Times he wasn’t excited about having to dye his hair — and neither was Amal.
“My wife is going to hate it because nothing makes you look older than when an older guy dyes his hair,” he joked. “My kids are going to just laugh at me nonstop.”
George shares 7-year-old twins Ella and Alexander with the human rights lawyer, whom he wed in 2014.
Along with changing his look, the “Wolfs” star also started smoking to get into character as the famed broadcaster, who smoked three packs a day and died from complications of lung cancer at just 57.
“I had to get better at inhaling,” he told the publication. “I go outside so the kids don’t see and smoke a little bit.”
However, he plans to switch to herbal cigarettes once he takes the stage next month, which he is admittedly “terrified” of.
“Are you kidding? I’m doing 11 monologues. When you get older, your recall isn’t the same,” he said of his nerves.
“When I was doing ‘ER,’ it was 12 pages of medical dialogue. You look at it in the morning and you say, ‘OK, let’s go!’ Now you get older and you’re going, ‘What’s wrong with me? Well, don’t drink any wine tonight.’”
Despite his anxiety, George feels a story about truth and the importance of fact is needed now more than ever.
He said the play “feels more like it’s about truth, not just the press. Facts matter.”
