This former child star who appeared in iconic Tom Cruise 90s blockbuster looks unrecognizable as he debuts new hairstyle – can you guess who it is?<\/h1>\n

This famous child star looks unrecognizable in a new snap\u00a0shared to his Instagram last week.<\/p>\n

The actor, who’s now 32, once famously starred as a\u00a0cheeky platinum blond haired child alongside Tom Cruise in an iconic 90s blockbuster film.<\/p>\n

He now appears to be growing out his hair and shared a snap of his new shoulder-length long blonde tresses to his social media last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The photo was taken at an event held at a football stadium in Texas, and he looked sharp in a black tuxedo and a black cowboy hat for the occasion.<\/p>\n

But can you guess who it is?\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Look familiar? This child actor, now 32, who starred alongside Tom Cruise in an iconic 90s film looks unrecognizable in a new snap, sporting long blonde locks. Can you guess who it is?<\/p>\n

That’s right, it’s Jerry Maguire child star Jonathan Lipnicki!<\/p>\n

Lipnicki\u00a0debuted the striking new hairstyle nearly three decades since starring in the\u00a0Tom Cruise smash hit.<\/p>\n

The entertainer\u00a0\u2014 who was known for his role as Renee Zellweger’s son, Ray Boyd, in the 1996 film\u00a0\u2014 captioned the pic with a cowboy emoji.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lipnicki made his screen debut in the Oscar-winning classic just at the age of six as a cheeky platinum blond haired child.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His fans appeared to enjoy the transformation, with one commenting: ‘Yeehawww, cowboy! That\u2019s a good look right there.’<\/p>\n

‘Your hair is growing so long awesome,’ another added. ‘Dude. That hair!!!’ Someone else chimed in.<\/p>\n

In another snap shared to his Instagram in May, he sported longer curly locks and ditched the circular framed glasses as he gave a sneak peak of his recent work.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Alongside the behind-the-scenes snap from a film he is working on, Jonathan showcases his passion for martial arts, revealing his is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Changes:\u00a0In another snap shared to his Instagram in May, he sported longer curly locks and ditched the circular framed glasses as he gave a sneak peak of his recent work<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Transformation: Alongside the behind-the-scenes snap, Jonathan showcased his passion for martial arts, revealing his is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt and ripped abs<\/p>\n

Jonathan is also keeping busy with work, and has five upcoming projects listed on his IMDb\u00a0page, including horror ‘Camp Pleasant Lake’ where he stars alongside Michael Par\u00e9 and Bonnie Aarons –\u00a0set to come out February 2024 – and thriller ‘They Two’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jonathan has also been on E4 series Celebs Go Dating in 2018, alongside the likes of Sam Thompson, Gemma Collins and Ollie Locke, where he took Rebecca Mason to LA.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year he joined Jeffrey Dahmer production company Buffalo 8 as Executive Producer and has also hosted ‘actors gym’ classes.<\/p>\n

As a child, after featuring in Jerry Maguire, he then landed roles in The Single Guy, The Jeff Foxworthy Show and episodes of Dawson’s Creek.<\/p>\n

After, he appeared in the sitcom Meego and became a hit all over again when he starred in the popular film Stuart Little in 1999.<\/p>\n

He played a boy whose family adopts a talking mouse. Stuart was voiced by fellow former child star Michael J.Fox.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 2002, he reprised the role in the film’s sequel, also taking roles in 2000’s The Little Vampire and Bow Wow in 2002’s Like Mike.<\/p>\n

In 2016, Jonathan revealed to DailyMail.com that it has been hard since Jerry Maguire to get movie directors and producers to view him as anything other than that cute kid from the film.<\/p>\n

He said being an actor is a constant hustle and counted himself fortunate to have a mentor in his former co-star Tom Cruise, who he\u2019s still in touch with to this day.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Next project: Jonathan has five upcoming acting projects, including horror Camp Pleasant Lake where he stars alongside Michael Par\u00e9 and Bonnie Aarons, set to come out February 2024<\/p>\n

Popular:\u00a0As a child, after featuring in Jerry Maguire, he then landed roles in The Single Guy, The Jeff Foxworthy Show and episodes of Dawson’s Creek; seen in 2019<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hard: He previously revealed to DailyMail.com it has been hard since Jerry Maguire to get directors to view him as anything other than that cute kid (pictured with Tom Cruise in the blockbuster)<\/p>\n

Jonathan trains diligently in martial arts and says staying in tip top physical shape keeps him centred and mentally strong in the dog-eat-dog world of Hollywood – plus having a six pack helps book more jobs too.<\/p>\n

Recalling life on the film set as a five-year-old, Lipnicki said: ‘Every year the memories get less and less, but Tom and Renee were really great to work with. Everyone was really a pleasure to work with, and I got lucky that that was my first role with such a positive environment. What I remember was how warm everyone was to me.’<\/p>\n

Lipnicki describes Cruise in the highest regard, and calls him his role model. He also admires how Cruise does all his own stunts, something he admits he\u2019d love to do more of himself.<\/p>\n

He explained: ‘I would love to [do more stunts], I just haven\u2019t had the chance to do anything too crazy. I had a fight scene with Danny Trejo in Bad Ass 2 a few years ago which was fun. I\u2019d love to do more of that.’<\/p>\n

Talking about how Cruise has been there for him to give career advice, he went on: ‘If I have a question he\u2019s been very open if I need advice. He\u2019s always said if you have any questions the door\u2019s always open and he\u2019s always been really responsive and helpful.’<\/p>\n
