Chris Pine playfully wore a bathrobe-style coat over pajamas as he headed to Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week to plug his directorial debut Poolman.

Along with helming and co-writing the feature, Chris, 43, also stars in it alongside Annete Bening, Ariana DeBose, Danny DeVito and Jennifer Jason Leigh.

In the run-up to the theatrical release of his upcoming movie, Chris has repeatedly caught the eye for his striking wardrobe choices.

He did not disappoint when he surfaced this Thursday to tape a late-night TV appearance with Jimmy in aid of Poolman.

Wrapped in a navy bathrobe that he wore open, Chris amped up the watery effect in an aquamarine pajama top and a matching set of tiny shorts.

The silver fox, who has been sporting a bushy salt-and-pepper beard, left his top few buttons tantalizingly undone over his bronzed chest.

Chris stars in his new film as Darren - an apartment complex pool man with a philosophical streak - while Annette and Danny feature as his neighbors.

Eventually Darren becomes aware of a water heist and is launched into a series of film noir misadventures that include a femme fatale.

The comedy mystery boasts a cast that includes DeWanda Wise, the star of the Netflix series adapted from Spike Lee's classic movie She's Gotta Have It.

Groundhog Day actor Stephen Tobolowsky, The Shawshank Redemption alum Clancy Brown and veteran English actress Juliet Mills are also seen in the film.

Shedding light on his fashion sense, Chris recently revealed that many of his Poolman costumes were lifted from his real-life wardrobe.

'I wear an outfit in it that’s basically my version of Cary Grant in To Catch a Thief, which is one of my favorite films,' the Star Trek heartthrob told Access. 'I wear two of my own hats in it, so I’m very much into the Poolman aesthetic.'

He cut a particularly eye-catching figure at Poolman's Los Angeles premiere, thrown late last month at Quentin Tarantino's Vista Theatre.

Chris made a splash in an 'I [heart] LA' t-shirt with a blue blazer, a high-cut pair of tight denim shorts, a large flower in his lapel and even a scraggly blonde wig.

Poolman is slated for a limited theatrical release in America this Friday - eight months after its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The movie was savaged by the critics after its debut, to the point it currently holds a dismal 23% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

'Not only the worst film I saw during the fall festival season but would likely be one of the worst films in any year it came out,' wrote Variety critic Owen Gleiberman.
