Former Eastenders actor Sam Strike has replaced his wholesome image with a new bad boy look.
The 25-year-old, who played Danny Dyer's son Johnny, first appearance in the soap on Boxing Day 2013.
However he left a year later and was replaced with Waterloo star Ted Reilly in April 2016.
Sam has posted image of his new look on his Instagram page including black and white photos him with a cigarette in his mouth as he squints at the camera.
In another snap he shows off his tattoos to his thousands of followers while another snap has him glaring into a mirror while posing in a denim jacket.
During his time on the soap he won critical praise for his emotional coming out scene to his dad Mick.
He said he left the BBC1 soap as he didn't feel "Johnny was totally necessary" to current storylines.
He added: "When I was in talks about leaving, I spoke to the people that I'd been working with the most - including Dom, the executive producer, and the Carters.
"I said to them that if there was anything they really wanted me to do we'd do that, as I didn't want to leave people high and dry.
"At that time I didn't feel that Johnny was totally necessary, but I really enjoyed it and I learned a lot. I have a whole new respect for soaps and the vast quantity of work they have to do."
Since leaving EastEnders, Sam has landed acting roles in Leatherface, a prequel The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Silent Witness and Nightflyers.
Sam once dated his stage dad's real daughter Danyi Dyer and in 2014 he was voted the hottest lad that year by sugarscape.com readers.
