Chris Pratt debuts dramatic makeover for The Terminal List season 2, leaving fans surprised and uncertain about his striking transformation. Pratt revealed this new appearance on Instagram while on set, capturing attention with a style that was far removed from his usual look.
Chris Pratt’s Shocking Transformation on Set
On Friday, June 6, Chris Pratt shared an update from the set of The Terminal List’s much anticipated second season, which is based on the book, A True Believer. The 45-year-old actor showcased long, unkempt hair combined with a wild mustache and beard. This drastic change quickly became a talking point among fans and viewers alike, but Pratt soon disclosed that these features were part of his hair and makeup for the character, not a permanent personal change.
Speaking directly to his social media followers, Pratt commented on the work of his styling team, highlighting how realistic his transformation appeared. He made it clear that the wig, fake beard, and mustache were impressive examples of skilled artistry. Fans observed the actor’s dedication to the character, noting the authenticity added by such detailed makeup and costuming. Pratt kept the context on set lighthearted, hinting at upcoming scenes while maintaining a sense of mystery.
“It’s me, Chris, and I’m having lunch. I’m on the set of The Terminal List, season 2 based on the book, A True Believer. Anyways, this is my lunch, and I just wanna say, isn’t this hair and makeup incredible? My team does such an awesome job, look at, I don’t wanna tell you what I’ve been up to, but there’s blood on my hands.”

“And my team is awesome, they do such great makeup and such great hair. And this is, this mustache is hair as well, it’s like a wig, it’s a fake beard, it looks freaking incredible,”
—Chris Pratt, Actor
“And the crazy thing about wearing a fake mustache for a fake beard is when you eat, you get hair in your mouth, which is gross. Because it’s definitely someone else’s hair, and you don’t know whose, where it came from. I mean, look at that hair, that came from what? I mean, is that, that’s not, you don’t think it’s, no. Is this someone’s pubes? No. Anyways, I don’t care, I’m hungry.”
