Brad Pitt, is that you?!

A teaser for the A-list actor's new movie, War Machine, was released on Wednesday, March. 1 — and while the upcoming film looks like a must-see, we can't get over how unrecognizable Brad looks with gray hair!

In the flick, the 53-year-old actor portrays a member of the US Army, Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal. The Netflix movie — set to release on May 26 — is a satire of America's war in Afghanistan.
