Sydney Sweeney is graduating into a dramatic new look.
The Euphoria actress debuted a shocking transformation on Oct. 11 as she stepped out in character as boxer Christy Martin for an upcoming film about the champion’s life, looking virtually unrecognizable.
In photos from the set in North Carolina, Sydney ditched her notable blonde locks for a neck-length brunette hairdo held back by a navy bandana. In one look, the White Lotus alum also sported a baggy, zip-up sweatshirt in a navy shade, worn with a yellow-brown T-shirt, dark sweatpants and white sneakers. In another scene, the 27-year-old rocked oversized, knee-length, gray sweat shorts and a light blue tee.
For the yet-untitled project—directed by David Michôd—Sydney will star alongside Ben Foster, Merritt Wever and Katy O’Brian as she portrays the boxing Hall of Famer who married her former boxing coach James Martin.
For Sydney, portraying a real-life athlete will mark a fresh challenge, which she enjoys both as an actress and producer.
