Megan Fox became an international star after Transformers, and her 2007 red-carpet appearances quickly became part of the movie’s cultural moment. She was immediately treated as a major Hollywood beauty icon, making her early image especially memorable. Over the years Fox stepped away from some of the blockbuster spotlight, returned to different film and television projects and experimented repeatedly with hair, styling and fashion. Later photographs have a very different aesthetic from the first Transformers era, which makes the before-and-after comparison particularly noticeable.

Jonah Hill’s breakthrough period was defined by comedies such as Superbad, where his youthful appearance and fast-talking screen persona became instantly recognizable. Hill gradually expanded far beyond that niche, earning major dramatic roles, working with celebrated directors and eventually directing films himself. His personal style also changed substantially over the years, often moving between formal Hollywood looks and more individual fashion choices. Early photos from the Superbad era beside later images show just how much both his career and public presentation evolved.

Emma Stone emerged through comedies including Superbad and Zombieland, with her red hair quickly becoming part of her recognizable early image. From there she moved into leading roles, musicals, prestige dramas and increasingly adventurous collaborations. Stone has changed hair color and styling many times, so photographs from her first years in Hollywood can feel surprisingly different from later festival appearances. The transformation is subtle compared with some stars on this list, but the shift from young comedy newcomer to one of her generation’s most acclaimed actors is unmistakable.

Keep going: the transformations get even more surprising on the next page.
