The Stranger Things star, 50, hit the star-studded red carpet and showed off a thick head of hair amid rumours of a transplant as a result of a mid-life crisis.
David hit headlines after the Mail revealed he had been having an affair for three years during his marriage to the British pop singer, 39.
Upon his return to Blighty the American actor wore a tailored black suit which he layered over a printed shirt as he joined his co-stars at the Leicester Square screening before heading to the afterparty at the swanky 180 Strand.
Following the bash the David beamed as he puffed on a cigarette while signing autographs for a huge crowd of fans.
Lily, who met David on celebrity dating app Raya, was said to have been left in ‘agony’ when she discovered her husband had secretly rejoined the app. In the wake of her split from the star, Lily revealed she’d undergone a boob job.

As rumours of his infidelity began to swirl, fans began to speculate that amid David’s affair with a younger woman he’d undergone a hair transplant.
Taking to X/Twitter, they shared: ‘David harbour really got a hair transplant at 49, cheated on his wife on a celeb dating app and is now getting divorced because he cheated with apparently a girl in her 20s. man really said ‘middle age crisis???? let’s f***ing goooooo’;
‘The Turkish hair transplant industry should hire David Harbour as their spokesperson’; ‘David Harbour def got a hair transplant’; ‘hair transplant looks nice on david harbour’ [sic].
MailOnline has contacted David’s representatives for comment.
David first debuted his new look earlier this month as he attended CinemaCon 2025 at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
It was his first outing since it emerged he had a relationship with a younger colleague during his marriage to singer Lily.
The Daily Mail was told the actor was romantically involved with a younger costume designer, whom the Mail chose not to name.
‘David cheated on Lily,’ an associate said. ‘They met on a movie they did together.’ The source, who witnessed their interactions on set, said: ‘They weren’t very secretive about their relationship.’

So serious did the romance become that David paid for the woman to travel more than 400 miles to visit him while he was working on his hit Netflix TV series last year.
‘David flew her to Atlanta while he shot Stranger Things to keep him company,’ the associate said.
Lily, who has two daughters with first husband Sam Cooper, wed David in Las Vegas in 2020 a year after they met on Raya.
The couple moved from London to New York, where she enrolled her children in school.
David bought a house in Atlanta, Georgia, last year to be closer to the Stranger Things set.
The couple separated late last year after the singer, whose songs include the hit Smile, speculated that David was using Raya.
The Mail on Sunday reported that she turned detective by joining the app herself, pretending to be ‘looking for women’, and allegedly found that he had set up a new dating profile.
In the wake of her split from the star, Lily revealed she’d undergone a boob job and recently showed off the results of her augmentation in a swimsuit selfie
Raya has more than 10,000 members and accepts only eight per cent of applicants. There are 100,000 on its waiting list.
Lily’s London friends said she had suspected that her husband was interested in other women.
A source previously revealed: ‘Lily is of the belief that he has been open to meeting new people for some time now, though she only found out at the end of the summer. He has been living in Atlanta for a year for filming.’
