Who physically does more for their roles?

I'm always a fan of actors who go through intense physical diets and exercise regimes to get in shape or out of it for their films.

Who do you think does the most for their roles?

My opinion is Matt Damon - Gets super fit for movies (Invictus) and also gets fat for them (The Informant)

Also Christian Bale - Fit for (American Psycho), and skinny as heck in (The Machinist)

Great topic crazy7!

Welcome to the forums, I hope you have a good time here.

I really do admire actors who do that, but sometimes I wonder if it is worth it? Is there really much viewable difference with putting on a fat suit vs actually getting fat? Seems like it could be unhealthy!

Another one I instantly think of for Matt (Damon) is his role in "Courage Under Fire." He's soo skinny in some parts.

I think Tom Welling physically does more for his role as Clark Kent/The Blur. He's always rescuing people, and there are always Tom Welling great special effects on Smallville.

Christian Bale definitely. His physical transformations are a bit scary at times.
