Hugh Jackman looks way older in jaw-dropping Instagram photo

Talk about a transformation!

Hugh Jackman posted a jaw-dropping Instagram snap for his 7.4 million followers in which he appears to look a lot older looking.

The 47-year-old actor looked dramatically aged with wrinkles on his face, sunken eyes and grey whiskers as he gave the camera a thumbs-up.

"Now that's what I'm talking about," Jackman captioned the photo while giving no explanation for his new look.

But it may not be what you think ...

Several fans commented the hunky Australian celeb might be wearing makeup for a new movie.

"The way that beard is trimmed looks like you're getting ready to shoot the next Wolverine movie," one user wrote.

He is currently filming the untitled third Wolverine film, reprising his X-Men character for the final time.

Jackman, who is an avid user of Instagram, recently posted a throwback photo that also went viral. In the funny snap, a young Jackman flashed a big smile in his college graduation photo.

But we have to say -- even a grey-haired Jackman will make anybody swoon.
