“Morgan reborn”: Fans poke fun as Future debuts new hairstyle; likens him to Morgan Freeman

Fans are poking fun at Future's new hairstyle, with some even jokingly pointing out that he looks like Morgan Freeman.

In a new video going viral online, the 41-year-old rapper, born Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn, can be seen rocking a silver-fox style hairdo, complete with matching stubble. The short clip is making waves online, and bemused fans are flocking to social media to weigh in.

One fan in particular curiously pointed out that his new style makes him look eerily similar to Morgan Freeman, the legendary 88-year-old actor, producer, and narrator. Here's how one user reacted, for instance:

"Morgan reborn"

The comments didn't end there:

"He finally took an L. I can’t believe it!" one fan quipped.

"Welcome back, Morgan Freeman," another jokingly echoed.

"he realizing he 41 now," someone else jested.

"Future starting to look more like the past now," a fourth user jokingly pointed out.

See how the rest of X is reacting:

"I'm confused why did this bro wake up and decide to start looking like Morgan Freeman," one user hilariously questioned.

"Morgan Freeman shows off his new hairstyle," someone else jokingly corrected.

"this must be the first time he actually looks older than he really is," another remarked.

"He def went to the future, bro looking like his 80 year old self," yet another humorously chimed in.

While sentiments online are typically divided, the internet seems to have a unanimous opinion of confusion and amusement with regard to Future's newest hairstyle.

Morgan Freeman opens up about bombing an audition that would later cost him horribly: Read more

In other news, Morgan Freeman made headlines just days ago when he got candid about deliberately bombing his audition for The Thing. The actor, who has seldom starred in horror movies, spoke to Oprah Winfrey about taking up the role, despite being known at the time for working on a children's show:

“I read the script, and I go back for the audition," he said. “The producer or director, one of those, said, ‘Did you read the script? What did you think? I said, ‘Well, you’ve got 11 people at the South Pole. Eight of them are scientists. Then you have a cook, a mechanic, and something else; they’re all Black. What do you think I think?”

While he didn't specify at the time which part he was auditioning for, he did clarify that in the end, "Needless to say, I didn’t get that job!”

He clarified that he didn't think that it was fair for Black people not to be considered for the role of scientists, but that sticking to his principles proved damaging in the long run:

"So, there was a period there in the early ’80s when I didn’t get any work," he said.
