"Two and a Half Men" alum Angus T. Jones was unrecognizable as he made a rare public appearance this week.

On Thursday, Jones, now 30, was photographed while he was running errands in Los Angeles.

During his outing, the former child actor sported a bushy beard and sunglasses in photos published by Page Six.

Jones also donned a black T-shirt, blue jeans and black sneakers.

Prior to this sighting, Jones was last spotted in April when he stepped out in L.A. for a stroll.

Jones rose to fame at age 10 as Jake Harper, the son of Jon Cryer's character, single dad Alan Harper, on "Two and a Half Men" in the early 2000s.

He appeared in the sitcom alongside Cryer and Charlie Sheen for almost a decade before officially leaving the show at the end of the 2012-2013 season.

Jones was the highest-paid child actor in Hollywood at the time, earning around $350,000 per episode.

In 2015, he briefly returned for a cameo appearance in the "Two and a Half Men" Season 12 finale.

Jones has since largely stayed away from the entertainment business.

According to his IMDb page, he's appeared in just one project since 2016. He made a cameo in the TV series "How to Be a Bookie," which saw him reunite with Sheen on-screen.

Following his exit from "Two and a Half Men," Jones referred to the show as "filth" and urged fans not to watch it.

In a testimonial posted on YouTube by the Christian group Forerunner Chronicles in 2012, he said, "If you watch 'Two and a Half Men,' please stop watching 'Two and a Half Men.'"

"People say it's just entertainment. Do some research on the effects of television and your brain, and I promise you you'll have a decision to make when it comes to television, especially with what you watch," Jones said in the video.

He continued, "I'm on 'Two and a Half Men' and I don't want to be on it. Please stop watching it and filling your head with filth. People say it's just entertainment."

Years later, Jones admitted in a 2016 interview with People that he "got pretty doomsday with my thinking for a long time."

He appeared to have no regrets about leaving acting behind and building a life away from Hollywood.

Jones told the outlet that he was enjoying attending college because he "wasn't the center of everyone's attention."

"Now I'm having fun and enjoying where I'm at. I no longer feel like every step I take is on a landmine," shared Jones.
