Tom Holland has bid farewell to his curly hair.

Holland, who is 27 years old, was spotted in London sporting a new tapered haircut as he prepared for his role in the play, Romeo & Juliet, on Friday, May 10. His fresh look includes shaved sides and short bangs, a departure from his previous long curls that used to frame his face. To complete his new style, Holland wore a brown collared shirt, carried a backpack, and sported a black watch.

Holland will star as Romeo in the upcoming play "Romeo & Juliet" at the Duke of York's Theatre in London, alongside Francesca Amewudah-Rivers who will play Juliet. The premiere is scheduled for May 23.

When he is not on stage, Holland enjoys supporting his girlfriend Zendaya. Recently, he shared his reaction to her 2024 Met Gala looks on Instagram.

He captioned photos of both her looks from the event on Monday, May 6.

First, Zendaya, who is 27 years old, wore a shimmery blue and green Maison Margiela Couture gown. The outfit included a corset top, a fitted skirt, and dark fruit embellishments. She paired this look with dark edgy eyeshadow.

At the end of the red carpet, she switched into a black Givenchy gown that had long sleeves and a ballgown skirt. To finish off her outfit, she added some softer glam and wore a bouquet of flowers on her head.

The Met Gala this year had the theme "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" with a dress code of "Garden of Time". Zendaya co-chaired the event with Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth, Bad Bunny, and Anna Wintour.

Holland didn't go to the Met Gala, probably because of his play rehearsals, but the couple has been seen together on red carpets before.

In 2021, they were spotted at the Spider-Man: No Way Home premiere in Los Angeles, where they both star as a high school couple. Holland was looking sharp in a brown double-breasted suit, while Zendaya turned heads in a stunning Valentino Haute Couture dress with spiderweb details.
