Actor and funnyman Vince Vaughn has debuted a rather bold - or should that be bald - new look.

Fans who prefer Vaughn with a full head of hair can breathe a sigh of relief, though:

Vaughn's rep tells Entertainment Tonight that he has simply shaved his head for a role in the upcoming film Brawl in Cell Block 99.

In fact, the Wedding Crashers star looked completely different only last week, when he rocked up to the Venice Film Festival looking - well, looking like Vince Vaughn:
