Napoleon Dynamite Is (Literally) a Daddy Now

It’s no secret that Napoleon Dynamite is one of our fave comedies from the early '00s, but between his style, his grooming habits, and his more-than-questionable dance moves, viewers certainly weren’t set up to fall head over heels for the film's titular character...

However, like a fine wine, Jon Heder (the actor who portrayed Napoleon) has aged gracefully into a full-on (and literal) daddy! 

Jon has come such a long way since his 2004 debut as the beloved-yet-cringeworthy Napoleon, and his glow-up is definitely proof that with a little beard magic, some nice flannels, and enough time, anything is possible! (I mean, can we talk about that beard?! And that jawline?!)

In recent years, he’s found a great deal of success doing voiceover work for a ton of popular animated shows and movies (like Chicken Joe in Surf's Up 2)...which is a little counterintuitive considering his glow-up has the potential to break the internet.

He settled down with his wife Kirsten and the couple have had four kids of their own, which means Heder has officially attained full-blown daddy-status. *swoon*

So there you have it. Napoleon Dynamite is officially hot now. Like, really hot...
