Remember '80s Star Linda Kozlowski? What The Crocodile Dundee Actor Looks Like Today
Before Linda Kozlowski landed her role in "Crocodile Dundee," she was an unknown actor with only a couple of credits to her name. But playing Sue Charlton in the hit 1986 comedy, Kozlowski had the kind of natural beauty that was hard to miss. She was a blond with striking blue eyes and undeniably gorgeous features that made her an '80s bombshell many fans would remember for years to come.
It's been more than four decades since "Crocodile Dundee" premiered, and while much of Kozlowski's life has changed, one thing has remained the same: the former actor is still absolutely gorgeous. A dive into her Instagram reveals that she kept her signature blond hair for years before recently switching to a darker brunette shade that somehow looks even more stunning on her.
One of Kozlowski's most recent photos was shared in March 2026, and it shows her posing alongside her adorable dog, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and black sunglasses. A closer look at her social media reveals that the former actor favors relaxed outfits, minimal but flattering makeup, and an obsession with sunglasses — seriously, pictures of Kozlowski without her trusty shades are rare! In fact, searching for a shades-free photo took us all the way back to a 2022 Instagram post, where she showed off her brunette hair and an absolutely gorgeous smile. Sunglasses are the ultimate accessory to nail the quiet luxury look, and Kozlowski uses hers to full effect.
Linda Kozlowski's vacation aesthetic fits her current career
Since ditching Hollywood, Linda Kozlowski's life has changed a lot. She divorced her "Crocodile Dundee" co-star, Paul Hogan, in 2014 after 23 years of marriage and one child. A few years later, in 2017, she married Moulay Hafid Baba, and the two now run a tour company, Dream My Destiny, situated in Morocco.
With her current career and constant jet-setting between Los Angeles and Morocco, it's easy to see how Kozlowski's effortless vacation aesthetic evolved. Her breezy outfits, simple makeup, and seemingly endless collection of sunglasses all fit right in with her laid-back, travel lifestyle. Even her hair, which over time shifted from honey blond to brond to her current dark brunette, has a tousled, easygoing quality. The "Crocodile Dundee" star seems to favor mid-length hair, with locks hanging just past her shoulders and wispy bangs that frame her face beautifully. It's a hairstyle that's perfect for older women, and she's certainly nailing the vacation aesthetic.
Kozlowski is clearly loving her new life and career in the travel industry, but getting to this point wasn't easy. Just like fellow actor Phoebe Cates (another iconic '80s star who is nearly unrecognizable now), Kozlowski left Hollywood for personal reasons. Back in 2001, the actor shared that she was struggling against being typecast as the pretty blond in movies. "Between that and my biological clock, I decided to give it all away," she said (via South Coast Today). The actor turned down work, ditched the limelight, and in 1998 welcomed her son, Chance Hogan, with her now-ex-husband, Paul Hogan. With her beloved son, new husband, and a vacation-filled life, there's no doubt that Linda Kozlowski is absolutely thriving.
