Remember the dorky guy from Napoleon Dynamite? He’s actually looking pretty buff these days
The star of the hit-comedy has transformed into a suave dad-of-three
THE guy from Napoleon Dynamite looks like a lot less of a nerd nowadays… to the complete delight of his female fans.
Star of the classic noughties comedy, Jon Heder, has certainly blossomed with age.
In the American blockbuster Napoleon Dynamite, Jon absolutely nailed the role of the socially awkward 16-year-old teen.
While fans hope that Jon can still bust the same incredible moves on the dancefloor, they’re pretty pleased that the actor has ditched his old look.
Over 12 years after the film was released, the 38-year-old has grown some stubble and ditched his alter-ego's curly locks for a more suave appearance.
There’s no doubt that fans are shocked at how different the Colorado-born actor looks like now, as they have taken to social media to admit their new found crush.
One commenter admitted: “Jon Heder aka napoleon dynamite is pretty hot.”
Another agreed: “Jon Heder/Napoleon Dynamite became hot af.”
If his dashing good looks weren’t enough to get fans excited, Jon has also been busy since his leading role in Napoleon Dynamite.
