George Clooney will be back to his silver fox ways soon enough.
The actor dyed his mane dark brunette for his role as journalist Edward R. Murrow in the Broadway show “Good Night, And Good Luck,” and neither he nor his wife, Amal Clooney, were on board with the drastic hair transformation.
On Monday, Clooney, who debuted his new hair in March, attended the Tony Awards Nominees Luncheon, with his natural gray strands peeking out underneath his baseball hat.
Clooney is a first-time nominee thanks to his performance in “Good Night, And Good Luck,” which is an adaptation from the 2005 film of the same name.
Though the play runs until June 8, it seems Clooney, 64, is slowly returning to his famous look.
Clooney has been vocal about his feelings towards the dark dye job. Last month, he poked fun at the color during an unveiling of his caricature at Manhattan celebrity hotspot Sardi’s.
As he held up the drawing of himself with his salt-and-pepper hair, Clooney joked, “I like the hair color. It’s much better than my hair color right now.”

He continued, “That’s better. It’s gray, mostly gray. There we are, thank you so much.”
Fans aren’t fond of the dye job, either. “George Clooney looks younger with grey hair. Idk how to explain it. He shouldn’t have dyed it,” one X user wrote. Another agreed, saying, “Clooney might be the only man alive who somehow manages to look older with dyed hair.”
Meanwhile, Clooney knew Amal wouldn’t approve of his new brunette locks either.
“My wife is going to hate it because nothing makes you look older than when an older guy dyes his hair,” Clooney admitted to The New York Times.
And he wasn’t sure how the couple’s twin girls, Alexander and Ella, 7, would react, either. “My kids are going to just laugh at me nonstop,” he added.
It’s no wonder he isn’t wasting any time growing back his gray locks.
