There’s a reason behind Robert’s new look – his role in HBO’s The Sympathizer.
Robert posted a video to Instagram of him being cut at home by his kids in late October ahead of the new movie.
Speaking to his children, Exton, 10, and Avri, eight, said, “I don’t want to wear a bald cap, so will you shave my head?”

The youths were then given electric clippers to shave off their father’s locks in the video, captioned, “The things we do for work… and our children.”
Robert debuted his shorter hair earlier this month during a special screening of Sr, a Netflix documentary about his late father.
He wore a graphic T-shirt and a navy blue blazer.
