Wow when did he get so big
everybody this is Jackie Silva yeah
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
actors who got buff for a movie role
because if you’re willing to do the work
you can have anything that’s what makes
the usf a great for this list we’re
looking at actors who put on
considerable muscle mass to play a role
in a movie with special consideration
given to those who did so in a
relatively brief period of time or who
underwent dramatic physical
transformations compared to their
previous looks we’re also keeping this
list to the men as an actress list is
for another day
number 10 Hugh Jackman the Wolverine
keep it safe for me
after an entire trilogy of x-men movies
where he looks like a less burly less
muscular Wolverine compared to his comic
book inspiration Hugh Jackman finally
got absolutely shredded to play the lead
role in 2013’s the Wolverine thanks in
order to get the ideal muscly veiny
animalistic yet cut look for the film
Jackman adhered to a diet recommended by
Dwayne the rock Johnson which required
the actor to eat 6,000 calories a day in
tandem with an intense workout regimen
and it seems to have worked if you look
at Jackman’s physique in 2000’s x-men
compared to the Wolverine talk about
aging gracefully what kind of monster oh
yeah don’t worry
number 9 Mark Wahlberg hain and game
life is gonna give me another set and
I’m gonna rock it cuz my name is Daniel
Lugo and I believe in fitness years
after his glory days as a muscle-bound
Calvin Klein model Marky Mark regained
his former build to play an eccentric
bodybuilding ex-con in this crime comedy
don’t eyeball me boy I see mother
driving up and down Street looking at me
I’d be a stepfather by the week and he
did it after having trimmed down to a
relatively slim 165 for his role in the
2013 crime thriller broken city you sure
you ready to do this your father in
order to look halfway normal sized next
to his 6 foot 5 265 pound co-star Dwayne
the rock Johnson Wahlberg undertook an
intense weight training routine and ate
roughly 12 meals a day to pack on 40
pounds in just two months the hell you
doing on the ground Hearn weights
supposed to hurt and of course he had to
keep this routine up while he worked
long hours on set hey no pain no gain
whoa big man fuck it baby come on go
number eight Michael B Jordan Creed rub
your hands you will prorate in this
spiritual successor to the rocky
franchise the formerly slate Michael B
Jordan bucked up considerably in order
to portray the illegitimate son of
Apollo Creed oh no how hang an undo with
me Jordan did most of his physical
fitness training with celebrity trainer
and body transformation specialist Cory
Kelley it and it was as tough as you
think cool
workouts two to three times a day six
days a week and a very bland diet for
almost a year
contributed to his impressive
transformation well I showed me how to
do this I’m ready and because he didn’t
have a body double for Crede Jordan also
learned two bucks the result of all this
hard work was 24 pounds of muscle gain a
successful sequel film and the approval
of Sylvester Stallone himself earned how
do you know all this anything
number seven Chris Hemsworth
Thor the first time in
in my life I have no idea what I’m
supposed to do playing a superhero is
tough enough without the added pressure
of also being a Norse God but who are
you really
fortunately the six-foot-four actor rose
to the occasion to play marvel’s god of
thunder so valiantly that when it came
time to begin filming Hemsworth’s thor
costume wouldn’t even fit
adding about 20 pounds to tip the scales
at 2:15 he reportedly adopted a
high-protein diet and an ever-changing
intense weight training workout
unfortunately for Hemsworth between 2011
store and 2013’s Thor the dark world the
Aussie actor was cast in rush as racecar
driver James Hunt XI the closer you are
to death the more alive you feel more
alive you are that meant that he not
only had to drop 30 pounds in four
months he also had to gain it back
before he picked up his hammer once more
number six Tom Hardy Bronson my name’s
Charles Bronson and all my life I’ve
wanted to be famous before he was vain
Tom Hardy was Bronson and his role as
the infamous English criminal prompted
him to seriously bulk up but rather than
getting ripped hard he needed to look
like a guy who spent much of his life in
prison and most of his time there in
solitary confinement meaning he had a
chance to attend to his muscles you miss
all the boys were all bigger than you he
got that brawler look by adding 42
pounds of muscle and fat to his 5 foot 9
frame in roughly 7 weeks thanks to a
diet of chicken rice pizza ice cream and
coke when do I go back now now mr.
Peterson we aren’t going to start up all
that silliness again are we his workouts
involved press ups push ups and other
exercises a prisoner might be able to do
and it worked even the real Bronson was
impressed Roy – enough he’s on it off
get him over
number 5 Daniel Craig Casino Royale I’m
sorry that lost hand you killed me the
names buff James buff we mean bond
the names bond
James Bond while not one of the youngest
actors on this list
Craig proved in Casino Royale that
wisdom is not the only thing that comes
with age sometimes you can get a killer
physique as well no tell you right to
the right to get in shape as perhaps the
most built bond yet
Craig cut the crap from his diet
focusing on quality proteins and greens
and minimizing his carb intake gave up
smoking and began weight training 5 days
a week with cardio on the weekends I
think something is driving you and I
think I’ll never find out what that is
fun fact when Craig learned he had the
role he contacted ex-royal marine Simon
Watterson who had trained other movie
actors including former Bond Pierce
Brosnan I know what you’re doing
what’s that there you are just trying to
show off the size of your yeah engine
number four Bradley Cooper American
sniper I just want to get the bad guys
above I can’t see him I can’t shoot
another actor who bulked up to take on a
military role
Bradley Cooper went from 185 pounds to a
meaty 225 in just 10 weeks to accurately
portray a u.s. Navy SEAL sniper Chris
Kyle Chris I’m Chris Kyle let’s meet you
to get to his desired size Cooper took
on two workouts a day plus was
reportedly force-fed and over 5,000
calorie a day diet that’s more than a
mile impossible shot Chris Cooper also
trained as a sniper a skill he picked up
fairly quickly but even so the hardest
part was eating every 55 minutes still
his hard work did pay off as Cooper
received an Oscar nomination for best
actor so it was all worth it
right look at me when I’m talking to you
hey I’m gonna miss you number three
Jake Gyllenhaal southpaw I can handle
the rules man I handle the rules I
believe me I grew up in a system like
any other rule if you’re going to play
an undefeated professional boxer you
gotta look like one and Jake Gyllenhaal
certainly did in southpaw
in contrast to the unusually lanky build
he took on for Nightcrawler just one
year prior that resulted from his 30
pound weight loss Gyllenhaal gained
roughly 15 pounds of pure muscle for
southpaws by training twice a day seven
days a week those intense training
sessions also helped him learn the
fundamentals of the sport so he can
appear to be a seasoned fighter in the
ring that dedication paid off as
Gyllenhaal was praised for his
performance both as an actor and a boxer
I was really looking forward to just
showing up walking the ring and then
having him fall on the ground number two
Christian Bale Batman Begins what is
your point of all those push-ups if you
can’t even lift I’m glad you know
all ready to number one pick on our list
of top 10 actor body transformations
this committed thespian appears on this
list not only because of the seemingly
superhuman bodybuilding he did to star
in Batman Begins but also because of
where he started out hey perfect fit in
2004 Bale lost 62 pounds for his role in
The Machinist by subsisting on water
apples coffee and not much else on the
street lies changed he was left with
roughly six months after filming
concluded to pack on the 100 pounds
necessary to play a convincing Batman
with the help of a trainer pizza and ice
cream he did it and even surpassed his
goal enough that he had to lose weight
before filming began
who knows Master Wayne you stop
pretending to have fun you might even
have a little boy accident before we get
to our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions watch the phocians to
the goat Pot way to the gods nobody
tells the patient

immortality
take it it’s yours everybody else on
that team I’m gonna call your mama go
call my mom
girl look don’t let my success go to
your head bitch get down on your knees
right now
number one Chris Pratt zero dark thirty
okay so how do you know it’s been Laden
you may have been expecting us to choose
his star-making role in guardians of the
galaxy and he did manage a significant
transformation for that movie
considering he just gained 60 pounds and
not in the good way for 2013’s delivery
man uh well you see this is this is a
complex situation five parks and recs
doughy and lovable goofball Andy Dwyer
first became a muscled hunk four zero
dark thirty you really believe this
story I mean no offense no offense I
don’t but Osama bin Laden where as for
guardians Pratt had the help of a
trainer and a nutritionist for Kathryn
Bigelow’s action thriller he bucked up
the unhealthy way by starving himself
and pushing his body as hard as he could
despite his resulting need for shoulder
surgery the move seems to have worked
and Pratt successfully exercised his way
to leading man status I’m cool with it
