Electro-therapy hair, dark, shadowed eyes and pallid, haggard skin - we've all seen the infamous Nick Nolte mug shot, but finally there is an explanation.
After years of public speculation about the actor's state of mental health, Nolte has spoken out about the bizarre photograph.
"What a lot of people don't know is that I had just finished filming The Hulk. That's the hair I had from the movie.
"I just finished the film and that's the way the hairdresser did my hair," Nolte told US magazine Steppin' Out.
The mug shot was taken in September 2002, when the 65-year-old actor was arrested on suspicion of drink-driving in California.
