A ’90s TV legend just gave us a complete makeover moment, and we’re not over it. The iconic actor ditched his signature look for a full glam transformation on the Los Angeles set Wednesday, rocking a shimmering sequin skirt and platinum blond wig for his role in the upcoming film \”Soapbox.\”
We’re talking full-on character work here. Director Andrew Jay Cohen is helming the project, and this is clearly not your typical prestige drama casting. The star stepped out mid-scene, and honestly? Unrecognizable doesn’t even begin to cover it.
This is a totally new lane for the actor best known for his decades-long run on \”The X-Files.\” Leaning into comedy and camp with this role shows he’s ready to play around and shake things up after all these years in the business.
