Yep! The actor's newly disheveled appearance might make it seem like he's fallen on hard times, but Crowe is just getting seriously into character for an epic role as Noah – as in the Old Testament figure with the ark.
The star, 48, was spotted on the New York set of the Biblical saga Noah on Tuesday. His new look is a far cry from other parts such as his clean-shaven role in Cinderella Man and even his sexy scruff in Gladiator.
For his namesake character, Crowe sports a bedraggled beard and messy hair, topping off his transformation with tattered threads – proof positive that sheltering animals causes wear and tear.
Crowe, who split from wife Danielle Spencer earlier this month, has a sense of humor about his facial hair.
"The beard will be gone mid November," he Tweeted Sunday, "so, no, I'm not booking Christmas shows #missedopportunity."
Crowe will be sharing the ark in Darren Aronofsky's tale of massive proportions alongside Emma Watson and Jennifer Connelly, with whom he starred in A Beautiful Mind.
