It's been a few months now since Shayne Ward made his exit from Coronation Street – and it seems he's taken the opportunity to try out a brand new look in the meantime.
The 33-year-old posted a picture on his social media, of himself in a brand new film role.
And the star certainly looked different from his role as Aidan Connor – showing off a rugged new beard, some impressive muscles and some rather scary-looking military gear.
Shayne revealed that the look was in aid of his new movie role, sharing that the flick would be hitting screens in 2019.
