Alexander Skarsgard shoots The Hummingbird Project

Alexander Skarsgard shocked fans when he debuted a bald head on the red carpet in October.

The True Blood star continued to wear the follicly challenged look as he shot scenes for the Kim Nyguyen film The Hummingbird Project, currently shooting in Toronto. He stars in the dramatic film alongside Salma Hayek and Jesse Eisenberg, who shot an intense scene on Monday.

Earlier in the day Skarsgard, 41, was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for his portrayal of the abusing Perry Wright on Big Little Lies.

The Swedish native was bundled up in an oversized blue jacket over a pair of dark tan corduroys and work boots. In some scenes, he wore a grey beanie hat to keep his head warm in the chilly weather.

Eisenberg, who plays Skarsgard’s cousin in the film, wore a similar ensemble with multiple layers underneath his winter coat. 

Hayek was more bundled up between scenes in a long black coat with a business suit underneath. Her character has a trendy silver balayage hairdo that’s completely different to any style we’ve ever seen the actress wear.

The film follows Vincent (Eisenberg) and Anton (Skarsgard) who are cousins from New York who are players in the High Frequency Trading game. They plan to become millionaires by building a fiber optic cable that runs from Kansas to New Jersey.

Hayek stars as their former boss Eva Torres, a power yet manipulative trader who will stop at nothing to get in their way.

Their journey to riches shows them that money is not the ultimate prize.
