Before and after of Margot Robbie's hair transformation

Margot Robbie is saying goodbye to Barbie's signature blonde lockswith a new makeover!

On Monday, April 8, Robbie, 33, was spotted on the set of A Big Bold Beautiful Journey rocking long honey-blonde hair and wispy bangs sitting just below her eyebrows.

The upcoming film marks her first major acting project since Barbie and finds her starring alongside Colin Farrell.

While plot details have yet to be revealed, it is described as "an imaginative tale of two strangers and the unbelievable journey that connects them," per Variety. Kogonada, who directed Farrell in After Yang, is directing the movie, which was written by The Menu's Seth Reiss.

It's no surprise that Robbie was okay with transforming her look for the new film, as she's often been one to fully immerse herself into her characters.

"We're finding Barbie references from decades past and just doing it really for the big Barbie fans out there, people who are actually collecting those Barbies. We're hoping to get them excited. We're pairing Barbie references with great designers," Robbie told PEOPLE in July 2023 during the film's premiere in Los Angeles.

The movie star created unforgettable red carpet moments, including bringing the Day to Night Barbie to life at the film's Seoul, South Korea, premiere and paying homage to the original 1950s Barbie swimsuit at an event in Sydney, Australia.

Her stylist, Andrew Mukamal, told PEOPLE in March 2024 that they achieved picture-perfect looks after a 10-hour wardrobe fitting.

"I had a board where every city was mapped out. We knew exactly which looks, which Barbies and which references were archival, and everything was very specific for each destination," he recalled during an event celebrating the release of their collaborative book Barbie: The World Tour,which looks at the behind-the-scenes of the process.
