Alexander Skarsgård has an, um, interesting new hairdo, which he debuted at the Louis Vuitton exhibition opening in New York on Thursday night.

The haircut is frankly styled to make him look like a balding old man with the top shaved and the sides and back left longer.

Needless to say, the internet is having a minor panic attack over the change.

Despite the startling and unexpected change to his appearance, Skarsgård appeared to be all smiles at the event.

Now, before you freak out and begin thinking Skarsgård has gone crazy, fear not. His hair has purposely been styled like this for his role in the film The Hummingbird Project, In Style reports. The film, which also stars Jessie Eisenberg and Selma Hayek, is a tech drama that focuses on the financial industry. It will tell the story of two high-frequency traders who want to build a fiber-optic cable between states that will make them millionaires.

People reports that prior to the Louis Vitton event, Skarsgård was spotted around town wearing a beanie, which, no doubt, hid his new hairdo until it could be unveiled in all its glory later that evening.
