James McAvoy is continuing his transformation into Patrick Stewart as Professor X—he's now sporting the character's trademark bald look for the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse. Director Bryan Singer posted a snap of McAvoy's new 'do-in-progress on Instagram. The real reason Charles Xavier is bald? Creator Stan Lee said he was inspired by actor Yul Brynner, an Oscar-winner you may remember from 1956's The King and I.
Keep a close eye on Singer's Instagram—@bryanjaysinger—he's been giving sneak peeks of the new movie every so often, which comes out May 27, 2016.
