The actor, 33, showed off his fresh buzzcut while attending the SFFILM’s Awards Night in San Francisco on Monday evening.
A departure from the chin-length style he was rocking until recently, Austin looked cleaner and more debonair thanks to his finely shaven new hairstyle.
The star looked incredibly handsome as he posed on the red carpet in his black suit and tie.
The new look got fans talking on social media, with a majority drooling over the cut.
‘Well, hello!’ one admirer chimed in.
BUZZCUT AUSTIN BUTLER OH MY GOD,’ one enthusiastic follower said.
‘People low-key losing their minds over austin butler shaving his hair as if he’s not still a ten in every way,’ one posted.
‘What a hot debut,’ one wrote, while another remarked similarly, ‘Austin’s new look is totally on fire.’
‘Glow up!’ one tweeted.
‘haha austin butlers bald in mexico rn,’ one wrote, referencing photos of him taken earlier this month that were posted to social media.
But not everyone loved the look, with one comparing him to ‘a rich kid who moved to Colorado.’

Austin Butler shot fierce warning from girlfriend Kaia Gerber’s parents Rande and Cindy Crawford
‘These photos look like he’s a rich kid who moved to Colorado who’s parents just paid for him to do Ayahuasca,’ one remarked.
‘undebut,’ another wrote.
‘To be frank, I didn’t like it,’ one wrote, with another chiming in, ‘I hate it.’
One wrote simply, ‘Nooooo.’
Austin’s hair normally falls right along the chin, and the actor’s hair was chin-length as he filmed Caught Stealing in New York last month.
The Elvis star is leading the film, which is based on the book of the same name by Charlie Huston, alongside Zoe Kravitz and Regina King.
In the film, he plays a former baseball player who finds himself mixed up with criminals.
Filming for Caught Stealing kicked off in late September — six months after Butler’s casting was confirmed.
