Justin Theroux was working his swagger and his beard in front of the cameras for his spread in GQ magazine. I think he looks a little scary with the beard, but it had this retro woolly 80s porn star feel to it that you can’t help but love.

Justin let the facial hair flow for his role as a cult leader in ‘Wanderlust’, and it grew on him in more ways than one.

“You establish all sorts of mannerisms with it. Like when you’re bored, you can feather your mustache.”

Although Justin became tight with his facial other, he admits “Certain chicks dig it, certain chicks don’t,” which means Jennifer Aniston wasn’t a big fan of his porn scruff. He looks better without it, but I’ll always remember these days of his hairy chops.
