Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard has shown off a new look, and everyone is saying the same thing about his drastic change in appearance.

Finn, 22, is known for playing Mike Wheeler in the Netflix series, first bagging the role when he was just 13.

The iconic show will air its fifth and final season later this year, after first beginning back in 2016.

The series has built up an army of loyal fans, and many have noticed that Finn has recently adopted a drastic new hairstyle.

Meanwhile a third wrote: "Penn Badgley cut."

Finn recently opened up on filming the final season of Stranger Things, telling his followers on Instagram: "We just wrapped Stranger things Season 5. I’m still in shock.

"We shot it for a year and I’ll miss all of my friends and our characters terribly. When I think of the show, I picture this first photo.

"A bunch of goofy young people making something they think is cool but really have no clue what’s to come. I feel like we’re still those people and I’m lucky to still stand beside them today. I hope you’ll love this season as much as I do. See you all next year."

Speaking to Cosmopolitan, he added: "I'll never really feel like it's the end because the show continues to be introduced to people.

"And I'll always be recognized as the guy from the show, and that is fine. I like that. And I wouldn't be here talking if it wasn't for the show. So I don't know if it'll ever feel truly over."

Stranger Things season five is expected to air later this year on Netflix.
