This wasn’t the usual silver look many of us are used to seeing Dempsey style, but instead, his hair was white… a very, bright white.
Deadline got to the bottom of the surprising hair-do by reporting, “Dempsey is playing Piero Taruffi, the Italian race car driver who won the 1957 Mille Miglia, in Michael Mann’s upcoming Ferrari. The movie also stars Adam Driver, Shailene Woodley and Penélope Cruz.”
Alas, have no fear, Patrick Dempsey fans! It sounds like Dempsey bleached his hair all for the film role.
Are you a fan of the bright white hair, or do you prefer Dempsey’s regular hairstyle? Either way, good for him to take the stage to receive his Disney Legends award with a shocking hair change that surprised his fans.
