She took to her Instagram Stories with a grab of a still taken while filming her new movie Role Play, sporting flaming red hair in beachy waves.

Against the dark and intimate setting, paired with a black top and a bold red lip, the look transformed Kaley into a whole new person, although it's unclear whether she actually dyed her hair red or it was a wig.

Kaley went the flaming red route for Role Play

Exciting as it all sounds, it is a huge undertaking for Kaley, who has had to say goodbye to many of her friends and family as she moves away from Los Angeles to Berlin and New York for the duration of filming.

She announced the bittersweet departure with a heartfelt farewell post on Instagram in late June, and it gave a glimpse into her last day in California, where she enjoyed some of her favorite foods and quality time with her pets, friends, and of course her boyfriend, Tom Pelphrey.

While Tom did follow Kaley along while she shot closer to home, evidenced by a few of the photos and videos they shared of their time together, he hasn't been with her while shooting in Berlin.

Even back in June in the lead up to her departure, the actress was already having to go through intense preparation for her role.
