You know I run new Viggo Mortensen photos whenever we get them in. And this is only the second sighting of Viggo so far this year!! Viggo was in Paris yesterday for a screening of his new film, Two Faces of January. That’s the film costarring Kirsten Dunst, who just this week said she thinks 1950s gender roles are the only way to make a relationship work. I can’t even imagine what Kiki and Viggo would have to say to each other, but sure.

We last saw Viggo when he was in Berlin promoting this same film. Back then (February), Viggo was clean-shaven and he looked a bit tired. In these photos, he’s grown a goatee which has some salt-and-pepper, and his hair is longer too. I’m not sure how I feel about this look. I generally like a little bit of scruff on a man, so I’m okay with the goatee. But he needs to do something different with his hair. It looks limp and thinning.

But what am I saying? Most of you would still bang it sideways. He’s 55 years old, by the way. So, would I hit it? He would have to be on his back, so I would have to look at his stupid hair falling across his forehead. But otherwise, sure. I’d tap that.

PS… You know who tapped that more than a decade ago? Gwyneth Paltrow! They rather famously (allegedly!) had an affair while working together on A Perfect Murder. I will give someone $50 to ask Viggo about Gwyneth’s divorce.
