Australian actor Ryan Kwanten has kept a low profile since playing heartthrob Sheriff Jason Stackhouse on True Blood from 2008 to 2014.
However, last month the Sydney-born actor, 47, was spotted filming his latest film Primitive War in a jungle set just outside the Gold Coast in Queensland.
The former Home and Away hunk looked almost unrecognizable in the snaps, wearing a military camouflage suit and matching boots.
He looked every inch the action star in the stunning photos as he carried a prop machine gun and a green beret knife strapped to his waist.
His brown hair was styled tousled and tousled, adding an air of rugged authenticity to his character.
Australian actor Ryan Kwanten (pictured) has kept a low profile since playing heartthrob sheriff Jason Stackhouse on True Blood from 2008 to 2014. However, last month the Sydney-born actor, 47, was spotted filming his latest film Primitive War.
With a steely gaze and determined expression, Kwanten seemed to embody the essence of a seasoned warrior navigating the treacherous jungle terrain.
He was later seen filming a scene with Lucifer star Tricia Helfer, 50, and Revenge actor Nick Wechsler, 45, and the trio looked like seasoned professionals as they navigated the challenging environment.
Primitive War is directed by Bring Him to Me director Luke Sparke and is an adaptation of the popular book series of the same name by Ethan Pettus.

His brown hair was tousled and elegantly messy, adding an air of rugged authenticity to his character.
After starring in the popular HBO series True Blood, Kwanten disappeared from the radar and almost completely erased his social media presence.
He was last seen in public in 2022, when he enjoyed breakfast in the Sydney suburb of Manly with his family and fiancée Ashley Sisino after flying from Los Angeles.
The veteran actor had a career boom when he moved to Los Angeles after his time on Home and Away, and landed on the hit HBO series True Blood from 2008 to 2014.

However, he is rarely seen on the big screen these days, despite working more than ever in the film industry.
Since True Blood, Ryan has worked on a host of films and television series, with his IMDB showing multiple works that are published each year.
Most recently, he teamed with Australian director Ivan Sen on Mystery Road and Expired, the latter starring Hugo Weaving and Jillian Nguyen.
Despite his seemingly non-stop flow of work, Ryan has rarely been seen in the media or online, and has chosen to keep much of his work and personal life private.
