Well look at you, Gina Rodriguez.

Earlier this week, the Jane the Virgin star posed for a casual selfie that revealed a significantly shorter hairstyle.

"Short hair, don't care. Ha. Not true. It'll take some adjusting," she shared on Instagram. "I'll just be a little crazy till the fairy dust settles!"

But as it turns out, this was only the first transformation for the talented actress. On Wednesday afternoon, Gina revealed her decision to shave the side of her head for a new movie role.

"Annihilation. #AnyaThorensen," she wrote on Instagram while showing off her new hairstyle that could still be pulled into a bun.

Before you ask why she took on such a huge transformation, we have the reason behind the look. "It's for a film role," she shared with one fan on Twitter. "And I love it."

While the specific movie remains unclear, we can say her next project titled Deepwater Horizon will take viewers back to April 2010 when the offshore drilling rig exploded and created the worst oil spill in U.S. history.

Mark Wahlberg, Dylan O'Brien, Kate Hudson and Kurt Russell star in the film that "honors the brave men and women whose heroism would save many on board and change everyone's lives forever."

And for those still skeptical of the new hairstyle, we have a feeling Gina doesn't care about the haters. After all, she's been taught by her parents to always believe in yourself.

"I grew up with two amazing people in my life," she once shared with E! News. "My parents were so phenomenal when it came to body image and to beauty and being very comfortable in your own skin."
