Gerard Butler has been spotted with a new hairstyle during filming for his new movie, In the Hand of Dante.

The upcoming crime thriller, which also stars A-listers Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot and Oscar Isaac, has kicked off production in Italy, and we've been graced with some behind-the-scenes photos from the set.

In the new images, Butler has swapped out his brown locks for a new bleach blonde 'do, while wearing a '70s-style grey suit.

Based on Nick Tosches' 2002 book of the same name, In the Hand of Dante follows a fictionalised version of Tosches (played by Isaac) in the present day and poet Dante Alighieri in the 14th century.

Tosches is swept into the dangerous underworld of New York City when he's asked to authenticate Dante's original manuscript for The Divine Comedy, while we also follow Dante as he tries to complete his masterpiece.

Last month, Isaac, Momoa and Gadot were spotted filming an action-packed scene for the film, with the photo showing Isaac tied up and gagged on a rooftop while Gadot and Momoa point guns on either side of him.

The project, which has been in the works for over a decade, is being directed by The Diving Bell and the Butterfly's Julian Schnabel, while Martin Scorsese serves as an executive producer.

Johnny Depp was originally set to play Tosches after buying the rights to the novel in 2008, though Schnabel revealed to The Guardian last month that Isaac has taken over the role and Depp is no longer involved.

In the Hand of Dante has yet to receive a release date.
