Martin Freeman has debuted a new and quirky look that has left fans surprised by his unrecognizable appearance. In recent photos, the Sherlock actor can be seen sporting a blue t-shirt under a dark grey suit jacket, paired with navy trousers, red socks, and shiny brown shoes.

Adding to his ensemble, Martin wore a stylish blue beret tilted to the side, along with a silver chain necklace and a folded handkerchief in his top pocket. Completing the look, Freeman donned a pair of see-through purple lens glasses with silver frames.

The British star posed confidently with one hand in his pocket, flashing a warm smile at the camera while at Mount Street Restaurant in London.

Martin was in the capital to attend the evening meal, hosted by British GQ and Paul Smith, to celebrate Excellence in Film with Saltburn star Barry Keoghan.

Freeman made an appearance following recent controversy over his age gap sex scene with Wednesday actress Jenna Ortega, which left some fans feeling uncomfortable. The pair co-star in the new erotic thriller Miller’s Girl, where Freeman, 52, plays the role of teacher Jonathan Miller to Ortega's character, 18-year-old student Cairo Sweet, who is 31 years his junior.

Cairo's creative writing assignment takes a steamy turn, leaving readers blushing. As the story unfolds, the actors in promotional pictures are seen in a passionate near-kiss pose, causing a stir online.

The age difference in the romance has ignited controversy, with fans taking to social media to express their disapproval. One commenter on X, formerly known as Twitter, declared, "I'm done with these age gap movies. They make me uncomfortable, no matter how talented the actors are." Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman's performances couldn't salvage this one for them.

Another critic expressed their dissatisfaction with one intimate scene, calling it "the worst thing they'd ever seen," while another critic noted the significant age difference between Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega, highlighting that when Freeman was in his 40s, Ortega was only 10 years old.

The film's official synopsis describes a story where boundaries become blurred and lives become intertwined, as a professor and his protégé are forced to confront their darkest selves while trying to maintain their individual sense of purpose and protect the things they hold dear.
