John Travolta has a brand new look and fans were so stunned by his fresh-faced appearance that they weren't convinced it wasn't him.
The Grease star stepped out alongside his daughter, Ella, at the Cannes Film Festival in France, where he received an honourary lifetime achievement Palm d'Or award before the screening of the movie Propeller One-Way Night Coach.
John was all smiles alongside Ella and appeared emotional as he received his award.

'It does not look like him'
John gave a sneak peek at his new look prior to this appearance, when he and Ella shared a video of themselves on Instagram.

One wrote: "It does not look like him at all," while others commented that he appeared to have lost weight and one asked: "Is that him?" Many said how lovely it was to see the close bond between him and his daughter, and there were plenty of congratulatory messages too.
Family film
John's new film is based on the star's own children's novel from back in 1997 that spotlights his love for aviation. It features him as the narrator, with a cast that includes Ella, Clark Shotwell, Kelly Eviston-Quinnett, Olga Hoffmann.
A synopsis for the film, per Apple, reads: "Set in the golden age of aviation, a young airplane enthusiast, Jeff (Clark Shotwell), and his mother (Kelly Eviston-Quinnett) set off on a one-way cross-country odyssey to Hollywood, which transforms a simple flight into the trip of a lifetime."
"Between airline meals, charming flight attendants (Ella Bleu Travolta and Olga Hoffmann), unexpected stopovers, larger-than-life passengers and a thrilling glimpse at first class, the journey unfolds in moments both magical and unexpected, charting the course for the boy's future."
