Former Emmerdale heartthrob Michael Parr looks completely different in a selfie he uploaded to Instagram this weekend.
The Ross Barton star was never without his trademark stubble. However, he had a clean shave on Saturday, leaving behind only a thick moustache.
The actor, 35, also showed off an incredibly ripped physique as he posed for the camera. Since leaving the Dales in 2018, Michael has gone on to star in shows such as Bulletproof, as well as in films Bulletproof and The Spyce of Life.

The caption on his latest Instagram post has had fans predicting what his next role could be. Uploading the photo showing off his new look, Michael said: "Paul Sykes vibes".
Many of his followers thought this may mean he will be playing boxer Paul Sykes in an upcoming role. Fellow Emmerdale alumni Natalie Anderson quickly commented: "And Tom Selleck!"
Lewis Robinson said: "I hope you're playing Paul Sykes! I'm sure they're making a movie about him now as well." Claire McFarlane said: "Holy s*** I thought this was Magnum PI". Bernie Elizabeth said: "I'm getting Freddie Mercury vibes", while Amy said: "More like Walter White!".
Michael made his final Emmerdale appearance as Ross Barton in November 2018, and just a few weeks after the episode aired he said he was "bored" with no work to do.
In a tweet, he said there was "naff all to do!". Bernice Blackstock actress Samantha Giles quickly replied saying "something good will come up".
Emmerdale airs weekdays at 7.30pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
