JASON Bateman debuted a shaggy hairstyle as fans claim the star looks unrecognizable in a new photo.
The photo of Jason, 55, was taken at a Knicks and 76ers game that he attended alongside Justin Theroux, 52.
Jason typically maintains a clean-shaven appearance and shocks fans with his long, wild hair.
He watched the game with long curls that turned into waves brushing his shoulders and a growing beard.
Fans were shocked by Jason’s transformation and responded to the latest photo that went viral on X, formerly Twitter.
“Maybe he’s preparing for a role?” one fan guessed.

“Probably preparing for a role in the movie,” proposed a second.
“Maybe he’s auditioning for a Manson biopic,” suggested a third.
“Maybe he has an upcoming role playing Jesus?” a fourth fan chimed in.
“Nah, just filming Teen Wolf 3,” joked another.
“I forgot he starred in Little House on the Prairie,” joked another fan, adding a photo of Michael Landon from the 1974 television series.
Jason starred in Little House on the Prairie at age 11 as the character James Cooper.
NEW PROJECT
The Ozark star is co-starring alongside Jude Law in a new Netflix miniseries titled Black Rabbit.
Jason will also direct the first two episodes, with Jude credited as executive producer.
Cleopatra Coleman, Amaka Okafor, Sope Dirisu and Dagmara Dominczyk have all been credited by Netflix as cast members.
The show’s description reads: “When the owner of a New York City hotspot allows his boisterous brother back into his life, he opens the door to growing dangers that threaten to tear down everything he’s built.”
A release date has not been confirmed, but the miniseries reportedly began development in October 2022, according to Variety.
GETTING INTO THE CHARACTER?
Although Jason is primarily based in California, the New York Post Office reported that the star was eyeing a $9.9 million Tribeca penthouse in New York.
“Celebrities love the building because it is so nondescript,” a source told the outlet.
“There is no doorman. You just walk into an empty building and then walk into an apartment that has a wow factor,” the source said.
The outlet reported that the 3,324-square-foot loft has attracted the attention of other celebrities, including Jennifer Lawrence, Naomi Wattsand Jake Gyllenhaal last time he was on the market.
It was previously listed for $11 million.
