The actor opened up to Variety about the head-turning accessory that's grabbed attention around the world ... revealing he intentionally adopted the look after getting bored with seeing the same version of himself in photos year after year.

So, he started researching legendary filmmakers and noticed a common theme ... many of the old-school directors he admired wore berets and glasses ... embracing an artistic style tracing back centuries.
The look clearly caught on ... John says he's purchased about a dozen berets ... so don't him to switch up his look any time soon.
John even joked he may need to launch his own line after landing on several best-dressed lists ... arguing men don't have nearly enough fashion options and should have more fun experimenting with their style.
