Looks like Willow Smith isn't the only one going all rainbow with her hair these days!

Elle Fanning is getting some tress-coloring action herself, as she shows off her scorching new redheaded 'do.

And needless to say, the talented young actress is packing some stylistic heat with the new look.

The Super 8 star, who, like big sis Dakota Fanning, has always been known for her blonde Rapunzel-esque hair, sported the new 'do yesterday on the U.K. set of her new movie Bomb, a family drama set in 1960s London.

The hue is a bit of a déjà vu for the star: If you'll remember, she first made a splash on the big screen as a redheaded lass in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, in which she played the young counterpart of Cate Blanchett's ballerina character.

Glad to see Fanning spinning back to the bold and brassy hue!

What do you think of Fanning's fiery new look: hot or not? Sound off in the comments!
