Romeo Beckham hides his new bold pink hair under knitted beanie as he steps out for dinner in Hollywood after shaving his head to channel his father David's famous noughties buzzcut
The model, 22, looked typically edgy in wide-legged Balenciaga cargo pants, a zip-up Stüssy shell jacket and chunky tan boots.
But despite recently shaving his head to channel his dad David's famous hairstyle in the early 2000s, Romeo opted to hide his new look underneath a knitted pink and purple beanie.
The newly-single star debuted his bold new hairdo on Instagram this week, sharing a snap of him posing shirtless by a lavish pool, while sporting a bold buzzcut, dyed pale pink.
Fans couldn't help, but notice Romeo's hair was the spitting image to that of his father, 50, who famously rocked a buzzcut in his footballing heyday back in the noughties.
David first sported the shaved hairstyle in 2000, before bringing it back in 2004 and once again in 2008.

This is not the first time that Romeo has copied his dad's 'do either, previously showcasing an ice blond version earlier this summer.
Romeo's latest snap comes after he joined David to celebrate his beloved mum Sandra's 76th birthday in style last month.
The footballer, who was still sporting his arm in a sling, beamed in sun-soaked snaps as they marked the occasion with a huge colourful cake.
Victoria, 51, took to her Instagram Stories with the photos of both David and son Romeo posing with the birthday girl in what appeared to be the grounds of the family's £12M Cotswolds home.
Hours earlier David displayed his bandaged hand on Instagram as he recovered at home following surgery after Victoria shocked fans when she uploaded an Instagram snap of him in hospital after being left in 'unbearable' pain.
A source told MailOnline that David underwent an operation to repair his wrist after breaking it during an England game 22 years ago.
The sweet family snaps come after Romeo's brother Brooklyn spent the weekend celebrating his father-in-law Nelson, posing in happy family snaps from the billionaire's 83rd birthday.
His wife Nicola Peltz has shared another gushing post about her 'most loving father' after throwing Nelson a lavish birthday party over the weekend.

The celebratory photos are the latest blow for David and Victoria, after Brooklyn snubbed his own dad's 50th birthday.
Brooklyn looked right at home with his in-laws, happily posing with Nelson and Nicola's brothers at the party held at the Peltz family's huge home in Bedford, New York.
'Happy birthday dad! i am so lucky to be your daughter, you're the most loving and supportive father i could ever dream of,' Nicola gushed alongside the party snaps.
'I love you more than i could ever begin to express - you're the wind beneath my wings,' the loving tribute continued.
'i loved celebrating you yesterday! thank you for always being there for us - our constant love and support.'
As Brooklyn celebrated his father-in-law over the weekend, his parents were enjoying their own bittersweet family time back in the UK.
Taking to social media Victoria posted a sun-soaked snap as she cosied up to her beloved parents Anthony and Jackie Adams.
In the emotional caption she wrote: 'Family weekends make me so happy'.
David and Victoria have reportedly become resigned to the fact that they have become estranged from their beloved son after he failed to attend any of the football ace's 50th birthday celebrations last month.
He also didn't wish either his mum Victoria or dad David a happy birthday on social media - an unusual move for the Beckhams, who are known for their loving posts.
This is in stark contrast to a post Brooklyn shared last week for his father-in-law and wrote on a picture of himself and Nicola with the billionaire: 'Happy birthday Nelson x We love you,'

Toni takes savage dig at ex Harrison as she moves on with new man in dramatic Love Island recoupling
LOVE Island's Toni got revenge on ex Harrison in tonight's dramatic recoupling. The American beauty decided to couple with bombshell Cach instead of sticking with Harrison, while he opted to partner with Lauren upon his return to the main villa. 4 4 There was no love lost between the exes, who had had a tumultuous time before the villa was separated into two for Casa Amor. Toni said she felt "sick to her stomach" before picking Cach. "For the first time during this process I'm putting my own feelings first," she added. Taking aim at Harrison, she then said, "maybe he shouldn't have ruined my birthday" referencing Harrison's kiss with Helena on her big day. Harrison stepped out with new girl Lauren and told Toni she looked happy before complimenting her new man. He said he had a spark with Lauren that was missing with Toni, to which his ex responded: "It's life, hey… I can't wait to hear your recoupling speech." There was then a bit of needle between Cach and Harrison after the former said Toni was now in a more "mature boundary". Harrison hit back: "What does that mean?" Viewers fear Cach might be using Toni, though, and fear she could be left heartbroken. "This dude with Toni sounds a bit desperate," said one person on X after watching Cach get to know her. Love Island star Dejon's colleague claims he's on the show to win it saying 'he's 'just there to secure the bag' "I feel like Cach is just saying anything," added a second. "I'm not sold on toni & cach, but anyways, go off," penned a third. However, he now has the chance to change their minds, having made it into the main villa. 4 4

Inside Superman actor David Corenswet's rollercoaster life from role in Netflix hit to how he beat Brit star to the role
IN an industry known for playing it safe, Hollywood has taken a real gamble by casting the relatively unknown David Corenswet as Superman. The 6ft 4in hunk certainly has the looks to become the Man of Steel — his wave of black hair and chiselled jawline making him look like he has been drawn by a DC comic illustrator. 14 14 But can he lead this blockbuster, out tomorrow, and break the curse of those who flew before him? It has been a bumpy ride for actors who have sported the superhero's giant S with pride on the big and small screens. And having got the part over 400 other wannabe Clark Kents, Corenswet understands the weight of the role, saying: 'There is an amazing, solemn responsibility to be the person to play this character. 'I know a lot of fantastic actors, better than I am, who may never be seen by more than an audience of 50 or 100 people at a regional theatre.' The Pennsylvania-born 32-year-old had a pretty standard entry into the world of acting, attending the famous Juilliard School of performing arts in New York. 'Seal of approval' Soon after graduating, he had a range of parts in TV shows, including House Of Cards, The Politician and mini-series Hollywood. All while living just outside Philadelphia, near the same small town in Pennsylvania where he grew up. Two years ago, he married fellow actor Julia Best Warner, who he first met at a youth summer theatre programme. The couple had their first child, a daughter, in 2024 — the year after he was cast as Superman. One fellow auditionee was his movie co-star Nicholas Hoult. The British actor got the role of baddie Lex Luthor instead, and graciously describes Corenswet as 'otherworldly', adding: 'He's got this Old Hollywood persona which makes him feel even more relevant and timely to this version of Superman and Clark.' Superman seen flying over iconic London landmark in Britain's highest public sculpture 300m above ground James Gunn, who wrote and directed this splendid new Superma n — which I found had more style, heart and humour than any before it — said: 'From the very beginning, he was the guy to beat, frankly.' Corenswet apparently sent Gunn a 'beautiful' handwritten letter following his audition. And Gunn was confident the actor had all the attributes he was looking for, revealing: 'I couldn't go for someone that had the look, but didn't have the chops. 'I couldn't go for someone that had the chops, but didn't have the look. I couldn't go for someone that had the looks and the chops, but couldn't do the comedic parts, or couldn't do the more vulnerable aspects.' Even the family of the late Christopher Reeve — who played Superman in the Seventies and Eighties — give Corenswet their blessing, with youngest son Will Reeve making a cameo appearance in the film. 14 14 14 Hope and goodness At the premiere, Will said: 'Getting to see David in his suit was a trip, he looked great. I told him he had the seal of approval. 'And then afterwards, he walked off to take care of his, at that time, infant daughter, and seeing him in his full get-up, cape and all, pushing a stroller so that she would rock off to sleep, felt like an all-American image. "It was a lot of fun to see that.' But having won the role, Corenswet's initial feeling was one of trepidation. He said in a rare interview with GQ magazine: 'A role like Superman seems like something that everybody would want, and that's not true. There are some people who wouldn't want that role and who would, if given the opportunity, say no. I am obviously not one of those people David Corenswet 'There are some people who wouldn't want that role and who would, if given the opportunity, say no. I am obviously not one of those people. But I certainly tried to think of reasons not to.' And he was right to be cautious, as those who have taken on the character before him have endured many problems over the decades. In 2022, British actor Henry Cavill revealed his shock over being let go from the role in the DC Universe films. He made sure his fans — along with everyone else — knew he was blindsided, saying in a public statement: 'I just had a meeting with James Gunn and Peter Safran, and it's sad news, everyone. 'After being told by the studio to announce my return back in October, prior to their hire, this news isn't the easiest, but that's life.' And Henry was not the only actor who found the role to be kryptonite. There is a talk of a 'curse' that has struck the supposed indestructible hero time and time again. Legend has it that co-creator Jerry Siegel put a hex on the character because his bosses at DC Comics did not give him a cut of the millions in profits Superman earned them. 14 14 14 He is said to have written in capital letters: 'I put a curse on you.' Kirk Alyn was the first actor to have the S emblazoned on his chest, appearing in a 1948 movie titled simply Superman. He once said: 'Playing Superman ruined my acting career and I've been bitter for many years about the whole thing.' The American died in 1999 at the age of 88 after developing Alzheimer's disease. Playing Superman ruined my acting career and I've been bitter for many years about the whole thing Kirk Alyn Next up as Clark Kent was the chisel-chinned George Reeves in the 1951 film Superman And The Mole Men, and more than 100 episodes of the TV show Adventures Of Superman. In 1959, having hung up his cape, George was found dead aged 45 with a single gunshot wound to his head. The official cause of death was suicide, but with no gunpowder residue found on his hands and witnesses reporting multiple shots, this verdict has long been in doubt. Theories about the true killer include him being bumped off by a Mafia hitman hired by the jealous husband of one of his lovers. But it was Christopher Reeve who truly brought bumbling reporter Clark Kent and his superhero alter-ego to life in the hit 1978 movie, Superman. The previously unknown actor became a global star, appearing in four of the DC films. In 1995, eight years after leaving the role, he was paralysed from the neck down when he was thrown from his horse. He died in 2004, aged 52, from an infection linked to his long-term condition. 14 14 Those who tried to follow Reeve have struggled with the weight of the cape. Brandon Routh only managed one movie, Superman Returns in 2006, before falling into relative obscurity. The role was then given to Henry Cavill. Among the most tragic of fates was that of Reeve's co-star in all four Superman movies. Margot Kidder, who was the romantic interest Lois Lane, suffered a spinal injury in a car accident while filming a Nancy Drew TV series in October 1990. I know a lot of fantastic actors, better than I am, who may never be seen by more than an audience of 50 or 100 people at a regional theatre David Corenswet Unable to work for two years, she ended up homeless, was diagnosed with manic depression and, in 1996, suffered from delusions one of her ex-husbands was trying to kill her. The Canadian actress was found dead at her home in Montana in May 2018, aged 69, following what the coroner ruled was 'a self- inflicted drug and alcohol overdose'. Meanwhile, Lee Quigley — who played baby Superman, sent to Earth in a spaceship by his parents in the 1978 film — died in 1991, aged 14, of a heart attack linked to solvent abuse. It followed years of bullying at school and developing a habit of glue-sniffing. Despite all this, Corenswet still sees the role as one of hope and goodness. Explaining what sets Superman apart from other movie heroes, he says: 'The fact that he is essentially free from angst and turmoil internally. 'He's a good guy who had a great upbringing, loving parents, has wonderful relationships with his friends and a romantic relationship and loves what he does.' However rose-tinted Corenswet's view of the role may be, the seemingly shy actor — who describes himself as an 'introvert' — might not yet have grasped its magnitude. Admitting he is not sure how he will cope with being spotted in public, he says: 'Most great things come with trade-offs. Who knows? Maybe nobody will recognise me.' I have a feeling they just might, David. 14 14

Small screen, big investment: TV episodes have become way too long
The big debate over The Bear – apart from the one about whether it's still any good or not, which is another matter entirely – regards its genre. Once the darling of the Emmys, The Bear initially called itself a comedy, despite not really having any jokes or levity or fun in it. And this was down to some bad maths about its duration. The Bear was a half-hour show, and sitcoms are half-hour shows, therefore The Bear must be a sitcom. However, in its fourth season, The Bear was no longer a half-hour show. Of its 10 new episodes, none are less than 30 minutes long. True, one is 31 minutes and three more scrape in under 35 minutes. But one is 38 minutes long, two more stretch on for 40 or more, and one somehow manages to be one hour and 11 minutes long. Now, it's important that we shouldn't only pick on The Bear here. Plenty of shows are at it. Netflix's new Lena Dunham series Too Much is equally elastic when it comes to runtimes, with episodes lasting anywhere between 31 and 56 minutes long. And then there's Stranger Things, which ballooned from an average runtime of 50.6 minutes in season one to 86.8 minutes in season four. And it's only going to get worse. From all the chatter about the upcoming final season of Stranger Things, it sounds like you should reasonably expect to die of old age at some point before the end of episode four. In a way, this was to be expected. The death of scheduled linear television means that programmes no longer have to staunchly adhere to set runtimes. A sitcom no longer has to be exactly 22 minutes long, because it doesn't have to duck out of the way for mandatory ad breaks and wrap up so that everyone can watch the news. At first, that was considered a good thing. For once, creativity got to trump commerce. Writers and producers were finally able to tell the stories they wanted to tell, with no concessions to be made to schedulers or advertisers. It meant that we, the viewers, were being gifted uncut, unfiltered access to the minds of the greatest storytellers known to man. What a treat. Except now it is starting to become increasingly apparent that the minds of the greatest storytellers known to man might benefit from the service of a good editor. Although they're free to make episodes of any length they like, that almost universally means that they're going to be longer, not shorter. This isn't necessarily a good thing. There's a reason why Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt started to suffer in quality as it went along. The first (best) season was initially made for NBC, and so it was tight and fast and broadcast-ready. Subsequent seasons were made for Netflix and, although episodes only gained about five minutes extra each, those five minutes were full of weaker jokes that would have almost certainly been cut for time. And that's just five minutes. At least one new Stranger Things episode is rumoured to run over two and a half hours. It sounds absolutely exhausting. Especially if, like a lot of us, you're quite time-poor. On an average evening, once dinner has been cooked and plates have been washed up and the children have finally been wrestled to bed, you might only have a maximum of two hours to watch everything you want to watch before you need to sleep. And with that in mind, it's hard to see these extended runtimes as anything other than robbery. There are so many brilliant things to watch at the moment, but we can't watch everything we planned because The Bear has decided to make a meandering, plot-free 70-minute wedding episode. Already I'm planning to carve up Stranger Things like a frozen meat raffle and dole it out in pieces over the course of a couple of months. It's the only way I'll survive it. Please, creators, I'm begging you to stop the bloat. It's something that The Bear especially should remember. The greatest episode it ever made – the one that initially put it on the map as a force to be reckoned with – was Review, the penultimate episode of season one. Filmed in a single claustrophobic take, it was a masterpiece of escalating tension. And it was only 21 minutes long. Those 21 minutes contained more action, more character work, more story, than this season's 71-minute slogathon. This is the direction we should be heading in: tighter, less fatty, more exciting. Throughout season four, The Bear repeatedly cut to a sign reading 'Every Second Counts'. It's time it started taking its own advice.
