Aaron Rodgers grew his hair to cosplay a big-time movie character

Back in 2021, when Rodgers was still with his former team, he pulled off an unusual stunt that kept fans excited for months. When it was noticed that the NFL star was due for a haircut, he teased fans, saying he was preparing for a Halloween costume with his hair. And when Halloween finally arrived, the 4-time MVP shocked the NFL world by cosplaying as none other than the assassin, John Wick.

Played by Keanu Reeves, Wick has amassed a massive fan base throughout the country, with 4 iterations of the series out by today’s date. And it was as much as famous back in 2021. It was on Halloween when Rodgers blessed his fans with an outfit and a look resembling exactly John Wick from the movie poster. He added in the caption, “I’m thinking I’m back,” a famous line from the movie when the protagonist announces his comeback. Rodgers concluded the caption with, “Para Bellum”, in the captions which translates to, “Prepare for war”.

With a passion for movies and TV shows, A-Rod is often vocal about his choices. Unlike the Wick costume, Rodgers once pulled off a killer-costumed, which unfortunately got unnoticed. The 4x MVP later revealed his outfit with a clean-shaven look, mimicking no other Jim Halpert from the famous sitcom, ‘The Office‘.

2 years before the Asian costume, Rodgers rocked a costume, mimicking Napoleon Dynamite’s Uncle Rico for Halloween, while his then-girlfriend Danica dressed up as Napoleon’s friend Deb.
