Zooey Deschanel looked unrecognisable as she ditched her trademark long brunette hairstyle for blonde tresses in a completely new look.
The 43-year-old New Girl star stunned fans as she posed for a mirror selfie with a full head of thick blonde hair arranged in retro feathered curls, captioning her snap: “Who’s she?”
Commenters on Instagram referenced her New Girl character Jess, as the theme song, which the Hollywood star co-wrote and sings, ends with the lines: “Who’s that girl? It’s Jess!”

Zooey did not hint at what she is filming that needs her to be blonde, but it may be for a forthcoming guest appearance on the third and final season of Rose Byrne’s Apple TV+ series Physical, which is set in 1980s California.

One follower, writing on Instagram, said: “Every day she proves why people would not have recognised Clark Kent was Superman.”
Melanie Lynskey, who played a supporting role alongside Zooey in the 2002 thriller Abandon, which starred Katie Holmes, Benjamin Bratt and Charlie Hunnam, added: “HANG ON you are 100% stunning in this look!!”
Mum-of-two Zooey appeared to be in a dressing room or an on-set trailer as she snapped her mirror selfie, which appeared to be a wig, as she put on a busty display in what seemed be a blue leotard.

She also wore lighter hair for that year’s acclaimed drama All The Real Girls, but has stayed with the darker look ever since, and last week showed up with her boyfriend of four years Jonathan Scott at the Los Angeles premiere of her new Max food show What Am I Eating?.
