The 58-year-old actor, who’s often photographed in tailored suits and accompanied by stunning dates on the red carpet, appeared markedly different amid his ongoing custody battle with his ex-wife, Halle Berry. Sporting a tie-dye T-shirt beneath an Adidas track jacket and combat trousers, the French heartthrob was pictured this week with a head of white hair replacing his once dark, thick locks.

He looks super different….” read a third comment. “I can only imagine it’s for a movie?” wondered one X user. The S.W.A.T. actor is currently embroiled in a tense custody battle with Halle, 58, over their 10-year-old son, Maceo. The pair met on the set of Dark Tide and tied the knot three years later in 2013.

“Scary,” said one comment about the French heartthrob’s appearance, while another asked, “What in earth happened to him?”

She also accused him of being uncooperative and said he lives off her child support payments. “I have done everything possible to work with Olivier, to communicate with him, and to engage him in the decision-making process regarding our son [Maceo] in an amicable way,” she wrote in the court documents filed earlier this month, according to Us Weekly. “Olivier has refused to co-parent and communicate with me in a child-centered way; he has been oppositional and unmovable on all major issues relating to Maceo,” she continued.

The actor’s change in appearance coincides with an ongoing custody battle with ex-wife, Halle Berry, where tensions are running high over their 10-year-old son, Maceo
