The Son star, 66, looked dapper in a gray Giorgio Armani tuxedo and sported a mustache, goatee and haircut that left social media feeling hungry.

“Pierce Brosnan has shown up to the Golden Globes ready to disclose the 11 secret herbs and spices,” one user tweeted. Another person commented, “My boyfriend wanted me to tweet that Pierce Brosnan looks like Colonel Sanders, ” while another user posted, “Rockin’ that Colonel Sanders look.”

His appearance was a hit for some people with one person writing, “So Pierce Brosnan looks like Colonel Sanders … but I’m digging it.” One user added that they had found the perfect actor to portray Sanders, who died in 1980 at the age of 90. “And there’s your next Colonel Sanders!” the person tweeted.

The awards show was a family affair for Brosnan who arrived to support his sons Dylan, 22, and Paris, 18, who are serving as the Golden Globes Ambassadors for the night.
