Matthew McConaughey looked unrecognisable in his breakout role from the 1993 cult favourite Dazed and Confused.
The Hollywood actor, 55, who was only 23-years-old at the time, looked worlds away from himself as he rocked long straight blond locks as he portrayed David Wooderson.
His character in the coming-of-age comedy was an older teenager that still hung out with the high school students in the film.
Despite Matthew going on to make a name for himself, at the time, the film earned a disappointing $8.25 million worldwide at cinemas after its September 1993 debut.
However, it has since secured its position on numerous ‘greatest high school films’ rankings.
Set around the final day of term in a relaxed Texan community in 1976, Dazed and Confused chronicles a collection of secondary school pupils – year 11s progressing to year 12 and year 8s transitioning to secondary education.

It follows the teens manoeuvring the edge of maturity as they discover themselves immersed in the depths of teenage years in 1970s America.
They celebrate, engage in initiation ceremonies, exhibit characteristic youthful defiance and anxiety, and ponder their destinies – all whilst consuming cannabis and drinking substantial quantities of alcohol, reports the Express.
Joining Matthew in the cast was none other than Ben Affleck, as well as Parker Posey, Milla Jovovich, Adam Goldberg, Cole Hauser, Nicky Katt, Joey Lauren Adams, Rory Cochrane, and Anthony Rapp.
Dazed and Confused has also received a 94 per cent review rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Reviewers wrote: ‘Richard Linklaters cinematic flashback… captures a rich pageant of high-school life, circa 1976, in a mere 100 minutes, leaning on nostalgia without wallowing in it’;
‘Totally authentic. Every time you watch this film, you’re taken back to the 1970s daze of high school. The ’70s kids AMERICAN GRAFFITI’;
‘The movie’s vibe is warm and good-natured, and we feel welcomed into the world of the cool older kids’.
It comes after Matthew and his family were spotted as they embarked on a fun day at a Los Angeles theme park.

The Pantalones Tequila founder was joined by his wife, Camila Alves, 42, and their three kids — Levi, 16, Vida, 15, and Livingston, 12 — on a trip to Universal Studios, posing for pictures in front of the gate.
The Oscar winner looked laid-back in a light blue linen button-down shirt paired with white linen shorts.

McConaughey and Alves have chosen to raise their family in the actor’s native Texas and away from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood.
To keep their family life more private, they are rarely seen together in public, although an exception was made earlier this year when all of them attended the annual Mack, Jack & McConaughey Gala in Austin earlier this year.
McConaughey has been a strong proponent of bringing more film and TV production to Texas. He and longtime friend Woody Harrelson, are the executive producers of comedy called Brothers, loosely based on their actual friendship.
The premise is that the two fictional siblings test the bounds of their relationship as they ‘combined families attempt to live together on Matthew’s ranch in Texas.’
Eight of the 10 episodes had been filmed before production came to a halt after the exit of the showrunner due to creative differences, according to Variety.
Levi McConaughey made his feature film debut in The Lost Bus, with his dad starring as the driver a school bus who attempts to rescue stranded elementary school students from a deadly fire.
‘My first role in a feature film.. how cool is that?’ the young actor shared on his Instagram account with a trailer from the film on June 8.
The drama is expected to be released in the Fall.
