Speaking about Austin’s physical appearance, he has shown his fans that he is so committed to his role that even he can change his look to fit in it. When he was cast for the role, he admitted to copying Ryan Gosling‘s extreme weight gain method to bulk up for his role. During that time he stated;
I heard that when he was going to do The Lovely Bones, had microwaved Haagen-Dazs and would drink it. So I started doing that. I would go get two dozen doughnuts and eat them all. I really started to pack on some pounds.
Butler also claimed that, though he found the methods to be fun for a week, he felt awful about himself. Well, it seems like his hard work has paid off, as his movie currently holds a 77% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie grossed nearly $288 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo, and led the flick and its crew to get nominated for numerous awards following its debut.
Austin’s weight loss has also been a hot topic as he now looks fit like he used to look before playing Elvis. I’m not denying the fact that the actor might have done something to look this fit, but all of his fans are wanting to hear from him and know more about the undisclosed diet he has been following. As of now, he seems to be happy with his life and avoids the paparazzi to focus on himself.
