Heartstopper’s Kit Connor looked unrecognisable at Elton John’s “epic” dinner party.
Connor, who is known for his role Nick Nelson in Netflix teen series Heartstopper, looked remarkably different at Elton’s John’s recent dinner party.
In a photo posted by the “Rocket Man” hitmaker, captioned “epic dinner”, Connor stands in between Russell Tovey and a blonde Andrew Scott.
If the 21-year-old hadn’t been tagged in the photo, it would have been easy to not recognise him, as he sported a thick beard and moustache – a big difference from his usual clean shaven babyface.
Fans of the star were quick to comment on his new look. One fan of the actor wrote in a comment that has received more than 320 likes: “Wait Kit?! I didn’t recognise him.”
“I saw him tagged and was like huhhhh,” another fan wrote, while someone else joked of his new look: “The bearification of Kit.”
A perplexed Instagram user commented: “KIT CONNOR????”
“Kit and Andrew Scott?!?!!? I’m obsessed,” another person wrote, commenting on the duo’s different looks.
“Thank you for your service in providing us with a new Kit photo,” a different comment read.
Also in attendance at the “epic” dinner part was John’s husband, David Furnish, actor Kadiff Kirwan and Scissors Sisters frontman Jake Shears.
Connor is stillset to film the live-action adaptation of the Elden Ring video game and star in the zombie flock, Rapture, as well as One of Us and A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow.
Connor rose to international fame playing bisexual rugby player and student Nick Nelson in Alice Oseman’s Heartstopper, adapted for Netflix in 2022. Heartstopper is confirmed to end with a feature-length film, Heartstopper Forever.
