Matt Dillon, now 60, embraces and debuts grey hair at Cannes Film Festival

He's more attractive with age.

I think he’s hotter than ever.

He looks so fucking good. He's never had any kind of major scandal, has he? He just sort of stays under the radar, was never really a famewhore. I like that about him.

Matt Damon stole my career

Looks died to me. Just well done.

R4 they were never up for the same roles and Dillon was out long before Damon.

R5 it isnt. It’s in a salt n pepper stage. Not fully gray yet at all.

I’ve always loved him. Just rewatched The Flamingo Kid, which is so great.

Looks colored to me, too. But something light.

That’s not embracing. That’s a talented colorist. As bad as those Ozempic liars.

Colored with grey highlights to look more natural.

The “light” is the fucking brown hair turning gray. Jesus. You don’t go all grey overnight. It’s a process.

I swear, I can’t with the idiocy any longer.

He’s hardly gray.

R12 is very angry. Sounds like a raging alcoholic.

SIXTY!

No one is angry. But if you don’t know how going grey works, just shut the fuck up. Why are you trying to argue with those of us who are older? We know it’s a process. You don’t wake up with a full head of grey hair.

He doesn’t have grey highlights, the colorist covered up some of his grey with light brown lowlights. I’ve been doing hair for 25 years.

Grey starts at the temples. He’s covered it up.

But it’s very well done.

He's aging well!

Dye jobs are easy to spot for those with an eye.

He may be aging well, but his career isn’t.

I see a colorist in there, a very talented one. He's also had some face work but subtle. Something around the eyes and jaw. Nice.

Why does the retard keep replying? Enough.

R19 provide a source for that.

Definitely a colorist at work here. Wouldn’t you agree, R24 ?

He looks so very handsome, naturally so. Tom Cruise is a caricature of his former self.

But what color are his pubes?

A new low for DL: a thread derailed by armchair hair burners.

That's a handsome sixty.

Back when:

I’d fuck him then and I’d fuck him now.

He may be allowing some grey to show, but he's also covering up plenty of grey too.

I’d eat his ass.

“…In men, graying first occurs in the temples and sideburns. It spreads to the vertex and rest of the scalp involving the occiput the last…”

R34 that’s about premature graying. Not the same.

His hair by the temples is the grayest on his head….

I bet he’s got a few below the belt.

I’d overlook it.

Men grey in the temples and sideburns first. If you don’t know that, you just landed on earth.

R38 I can’t find any science that says that for men who aren’t going grey prematurely. And neither can you.

Are the hairs on his asshole gray?

I’ve never understood why men dye their hair. Age looks good on men. Young men tend to be selfish and immature assholes.

Where I get my hair cut, a lot of guys come in for dye jobs.

Not one is convincing.

Surprised that his stubble is not grey.

Mine was white before I turned 50.

He's looking good.

R4 bahahahaha. Learn how to act. Plus you are a fag.

Just For Men shampoo-in hair rinse can fix that.

Major a-hole. Same goes for his not so closeted brother.

He looks damn good for 60. In fact, he looks a hell of a lot better at 60 than most guys look at 45 - 50!

His look in Wild Things was fucking HOT.

R43 I didn’t know you share dna with him

R48 he was not 60 in Wild Things.

R50 I didn't say he was, precious.

That very much is grey. Some of you need your eyes checked. Some men don’t go silver. They go GREY.

Who gives a fuck about his hair. He’s still hot.

I'll leave the question of whether the hair is dyed to others. If it is, it's done very tastefully. Unlike what Travolta used to do (see link)? Poor Johnny looked like he'd been dipped scalp first into a vat of black tar.

Also, y'all weren't exaggerating, Matt Dillon looks STUNNING for sixty. Like. Legitimately stunning. Let's be real, a lot of fair skinned men do not age well. I mean, there are MUCH younger A-listers who look terrible by comparison. Look at how old Chris Pine appears compared to Matt Dillon!

And here's Chris Pine in 2024... Yikes.

Damn, he looks fabulous.

I always liked him.

Thanks for the link r55.

Is Auntie Matty still dating in Europe?

Nobody has gray hair and a totally dark beard - the beard is colored. (But why does he bother? It's easier to shave.) His hair may be natural, I'm 65 and only have a little gray on the sides. It happens.

His teeth look natural, too. It'd be good if the days of ultra-white teeth or veneers are on the wane.

He looks fantastic and very handsome - but I wouldn't classify him as a silver fox. His hair and eyebrows are expertly colored. Very good job. In the link you can see how grey his hair is. If he stopped coloring it then he would be a silver fox.

They used a lighter shade of hair color, jawline is "taunt" for a 60 year hold. He's always been a handsome man.

[quote]Thanks for the link R 55

Oh dear! Sorry about that, R58. Here's what I was referencing in R54 and R55

Very Jacob Elordi-esque in R30.

He's always been gorgeous but he has truly aged like a fine wine.

[quote] Looks died to me.

Oh dear, R5.

R65 ghastly. Is Chris Pine transitioning? It's giving early Caitlyn Jenner.

Just For Men Shampoo & Conditioner

No R70 - it's colored by a very expensive and very talented colorist.

Yeah there’s a photo of him from earlier this month and his hair is darker.

It was definitely dyed and highlighted / lifted to give him that natural going gray look.

It’s beautifully done. It’s exactly how men his age should be getting their hair colored.

You can see here he’s been coloring his hair WAY too dark for his age.

With this new hairstyle, they probably lifted and toned and then used a color comb to add color.

Just my guess. But it’s not natural lol.

Spot on R72. I also was a hairdresser long ago - a colorist.

[Quote][R12] is very angry. Sounds like a raging alcoholic.

with a bad dye job

Wow, he looks great. I think I saw him a few years ago and it was obvious he had work done. Looks like the work settled.

Who is he fucking these days?

Why did he refuse to do a gay sex in the shower scene with Kevin Bacon in Wild Things?

60 and still hasn't met the right girl?

I bet he is crazy hot sex, or so I still tell myself, having wanted to have days and days of it with him for the last 40 or so years. Glad he's still worth a hall pass from my husband.

Look at him here. Sexy fucker!

I don't know, I am not a hair pro at all. I know many people who had very dark hair both men and woman who go with that light brown as a way to hide the grey without looking fake. But to me, so may people do that it looks just as unnatural. Especially with people in the lime light who you have known all their life with dark hair. Can't a good hair colorist make a dark version with highlights that looks natural?

He's never had any kind of major scandal, has he?

Wasn't he supposed to be one of Heidi Fleiss' celebrity customers?

R78 - I thought Kevin Bacon said it was the film's financers who didn't like the idea of the two guys making out.

There is a hairdresser who specialises in people taking their hair from dyed to grey. He did Andie MacDowell and Frances Fisher and has people flying in from all over the world. It looks superb.

Why do they call it a silver fox moment when he has some gray in the hair at most?

Um—he’s still using dye…to a different effect.

Matt Dillon is younger than me? I don't think so.

^^^^ oh, dear

. . .

[quote] ^^^^ oh, dear

Oh, dear.

R83, that was the determinant finally but according to the article in the link, one of the two actors refused to do the scene, and the other wanted to do it. It clearly states Bacon wanted to do it, so...

For 1998 the made the right move, the film would have sank at the BO if they included it. Homophobia was still sky high. People weren’t ready for that yet.

R92 Didn't the movie sink, anyway?

He's 60 now. I heard he was dating in Asia decades ago...you all know what that means...gay!

Is that hair transplant? Looks very natural

Plus his stubble is not grey or white, makes him look younger

Is there a 60 year old man whose stubble is not at least partially gray or white?

He's been dyeing his hair for years, it always has looked terrible, at least this looks pretty good (but it still seems to be at least partly dyed).

R93 no! It made 70M on a 20M budget, was a huge rental hit and cult classic

In OP's picture he looks like he has a bridge or implants in front. Especially of you compare those teeth to the ones in the phot where he was a lot younger.

[quote]Matt was in a relationship with Cameron Diaz from 1995 to 1998. From 2014 to 2024 he was in a relationship with Italian actress, dancer and choreographer Roberta Mastromichele.[20]

The gay scene in the movie would have made perfect sense.

But as someone said it was 1998 and it was marketed as a jiggly sex movie.

Today it would have worked.

In & Out was a hit in 1997, though.

R102 i remember straight guys going on and on about the tits in the movie. The subtle homoerotic notes were just right. The gay sex full on would have been heavy-handed. Now I think the limit at the time would’ve been that Matt’s character walks up to the the shower and they chat a bit, then a comment is made about “I need to shower too” then Bacon turns the shower back on, stares are exchanged, Bacon stands under the water, Dillion strips off his shirt and makes a move towards the shower with a quick shot implying he’s taking his pants off. End scene.

I thought he was 38.

Seems like the stubble (coarse hair) would be hard to dye brown.

It can be dyed. My friend is a hairdresser and he does it all the time for his clients

R106 Google "how to dye stubble".
