Jacob Elordi, the heartthrob of Hollywood, recently surprised fans with a whole new look. The 27-year-old actor from Saltburn debuted a full-grown beard at the opening ceremony of the 21st Marrakech International Film Festival over the weekend. As a member of the jury, Jacob attended the festival to watch a screening of the crime thriller "The Order" starring Jude Law. Along with him, the jury consisted of renowned director Luca Guadagnino and talented actors such as Patricia Arquette, Andrew Garfield, Virginie Efira, and Monica Bellucci.
Fans were taken aback by Jacob's new facial hair, with many expressing their shock on social media. Some even joked that the handsome hunk had gone from "baby girl to daddy" overnight. Others wondered if the beard was for a new role, speculating that he might play Heathcliff in the upcoming adaptation of "Wuthering Heights". Jacob's beard sparked various reactions, with some comparing him to a young Matthew McConaughey or Christian Bale, while others made less flattering comparisons to Charles Manson.
Jacob first rose to fame after moving to the United States at the age of 19 in 2017. He started as an extra on the set of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" and later landed his first leading role in the Australian film "Swinging Safari". But it was his role as Noah Flynn in the Netflix romantic comedy "The Kissing Booth" that catapulted him to international stardom. However, he faced criticism after publicly criticizing the movie and calling it "ridiculous".
Since then, Jacob has been busy with various projects, including playing Nate Jacobs in the hit HBO series "Euphoria". He has also appeared in several films, such as the Sofia Coppola-directed biopic "Priscilla" where he portrayed Elvis Presley, and the crime thriller "He Went That Way" where he played a 19-year-old serial killer. His most recent role was in the steamy psychological drama "Saltburn" where he starred as aristocrat Felix Catton alongside Barry Keoghan.
Next up, Jacob is set to play the iconic character of Heathcliff in the latest adaptation of "Wuthering Heights". The film, directed by Emerald Fennell, will also star Margot Robbie. However, the casting has received backlash from fans of the original book who argue that Jacob, being a white actor, does not have the "dark skin" of Heathcliff described in the novel. This issue has been raised before, as previous adaptations have also cast white male actors in the role.
