Joe Manganiello Shaved Off His Beard And Looks Like A Different Person

Joe Manganiello's beard is no more. The Magic Mike and True Blood actor underwent one of the most dramatic transformations of all, shaving all his facial hair off. Like fellow iconic bearded actor Jason Momoa, he looks like a completely different person clean-shaven. His wife Sofia Vergara shared a shot of him pool-side, while Manganiello posted a close-up shot on his 'gram.

Manganiello hasn't really detailed what exactly prompted the move on social media.

When Jason Momoa shaved off his beard, in contrast, he shared a video of the process and explained his reasoning: Environmentalism...and to really drive home the point of his "use aluminium cans instead of water bottles" PSA. (Momoa has a product line of aluminium water cans, Mananalu, so the video doubled as a commercial for it.)

"Goodbye DROGO, AQUAMAN, DECLAN, BABA ...I’m SHAVING this beast off, It’s time to make a change," he wrote. "A change for the better...for my kids, your kids, the world. Let’s make a positive change for the health of our planet. 🌎 Let’s clean up our oceans 🌊 our land ⛰. Join me on this journey. Let’s make the switch to infinitely recyclable aluminum. ♻️♻️♻️ Water in cans, not plastic."

Goodbye Drogo...I SHAVED!

The beard has since returned though, so there's hope Manganiello's change could also be temporary for you beard and moustache fans.

Aloha everybody, Hope you and your loved ones are all safe during these crazy times. If you're looking for a great documentary to watch, please check out an amazing, and timely film called Story of Plastic, which premiers on Discovery Channel on this Wednesday as part of their celebration of the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. You can also watch the film on DiscoveryGO like I did. I had nothing to do with this film, but the message couldn't be more near and dear to my heart. Spanning three continents, the film illustrates the ongoing catastrophe: fields full of garbage, veritable mountains of trash; rivers and seas clogged with waste; and skies choked with the poisonous emissions from plastic production and processing. THE STORY OF PLASTIC features interviews with experts and activists on the frontlines of the fight, revealing the disastrous consequences of the flood of plastic smothering ecosystems and poisoning communities around the world -and the global movement rising up in response. It's important that we do everything possible to protect the earth and eliminate single use plastics, not just for ourselves but for all the generations to come. Mahalo. Aloha J Watch #TheStoryofPlastic on Discovery April 22nd or on #DiscoveryGO. Discovery.com/Plastic" @discovery
