Jessica Alba Gets Scissor-Happy 'Sin City' Clip

It looks like when we once again see Jessica Alba returning to Frank Miller's Sin City: A Dame To Kill For as Nancy Callahan, it'll be with a whole new look. In a new clip from Sin City: A Dame To Kill For, Alba's character does what any sensitive stripper-with-a-heart-of-gold would do to cope with the death of a loved one: she gets a haircut.

Well — by "gets a haircut," I actually mean she grabs a pair of scissors in a Britney circa 2007 manic rage and chops it all off, leaving herself looking like a sexed-up Edward Scissorhands. It's an emotional haircut, y'know?

The clip highlights a drastic transformation in Alba's character as she mourns the loss of her beloved John Hartigan, played by Bruce Willis. In the clip, we see her talking to a vision of Hartigan's ghost as chunks of hair fall into the sink, suggesting that we'll be seeing a more dangerous and slightly unhinged Nancy in A Dame To Kill For.

Can't wait to see more? Sin City: A Dame To Kill For will hit theaters on August 22, 2014.
