Making it two for two when it comes to jarring reshoot hair leaving Star Wars fans scratching their heads, with him being lumbered with a rather noticeable wig for some Phantom Menace reshoots, Ewan McGregor was at it again in the midst of shooting Attack of the Clones.

After going out of his way to grow his hair out into a glorious mullet and let his facial fuzz flow for his role of a more mature Obi-Wan Kenobi, McGregor was forced to chop his locks and shave his face for his upcoming part in Ridley Scott's Black Hawk Down.

Unfortunately for McGregor, Lucas opted to add some new scenes featuring the Jedi Master after wrapping up principal photography, leading to him being stuffed into a mullet-wig and having a beard stuck onto his mug due to not having enough time to grow everything back post-Black Hawk Down.

Look no further than Kenobi's elevator re-introduction alongside Anakin for an example of fake face fuzz gone terribly wrong...
