Jacob Elordi debuts new Wuthering Heights-inspired sheep chops and the Internet is in Rapture

Jacob Elordi have left internet swinging!

The actor, 27, debuted dramatic side burns at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival on Saturday, February 15 while promoting his upcoming Australian Prime Video series The narrow road to Deep North.

Elordi held her appearance easily at the event, dressed in a gray sweater layer over a white shirt and black slacks with a black belt. He also wore a neat pair of black tabi loafers containing a brown strap.

Together with his fashionable ensemble, the actor made some bold care choices. He wore his hair in messy curls designed to frame his face and swung a pair of classic sheep meat chops with an otherwise pure straight look.

Social media was surprised by comments about his new look. “Jacob Elordi in Berlin with the side bounces really works for me, I can’t lie,” wrote An honest fan. Another noticed his upcoming role in Emerald Fennells Adaptation of the romantic period drama Wuthering heightsThe writing“Jacob Elordi with his Heathcliff Wuthering Heights Sideburns Oooooohh that should be me! I have to look like him.”

A third made the same connection, requested“Is this his Heathcliff hairstyle because I feel it …”

Now this is not Elordi’s first time that experiments with facial hair. The Discs actor embraced a full scrap At Marrakech Film Festival in November 2024, which saw him debut his brand new look, along with a longer hairstyle, at the festival’s opening ceremony.
