London, March 12 : Katie Holmes shunned her trademark bob look to return to her old wavy locks reminiscent of her time as Joey Potter on the teen drama Dawson''s Creek from 1998 to 2003.

The actress appeared with the new look at the Japanese premiere of her hubby Tom Cruise's latest film "Valkyrie".

Sporting a purple and red dress, Katie struck a pose with her 16-year-senior better half for the eager cameras and fans waiting at the event, reports the Sun.

The "Batman Begins" star was spotted with her short hair just three days before arriving in Tokyo, and cropped it during her stay in the country.

The stunner further laid health fears to rest by drawing a marked contrast to her previous pictures which depicted her looking skinny and pale. (ANI)
