When most actors take on a big blockbuster type film they usually have to change their appearance because they are either too skinny or too big, Total Film have come up with a list of stars who have buffed up for their roles in these movies.
Chris Evans
The Role: Steve Rogers/Captain America in Captain America
The Technique: Chris Evans did gym sessions a-plenty and ate lots of protein-rich foods. He said to MTV, “It’s the workouts that, you know, make you want to vomit. It’s horrible.”
Did They Keep It Up?:: In a word, no, again, to MTV, he said, “Oh my god, when shooting was done I just stopped going to the gym completely for about three months.”
Christian Bale
The Role: Bruce Wayne/Batman in Batman Begins
The Technique: Bale went straight from The Machinist where he was 130 pounds, and got to 230 pounds, 40 pounds more than what Christopher Nolan wanted. He said to IGN, “I couldn’t do one push up the first day. All of the muscles were gone, so that was a real tough time of rebuilding all of that.”
Did They Keep It Up?:: None of his weight-changes have been as drastic as this. However, he has since slimmed down for The Fighter, in the role of heroin addict Dickie Ecklund.
Hugh Jackman
The Role: Logan/Wolverine in X-Men Origins: Wolverine
The Technique: According to Mike Ryan, Jackman’s personal trainer, they would train in the morning, so for a 6am filming start, they would be in the gym at 4am, to do an hour and a half of training.
Did They Keep It Up?:: Jackman has to get even bigger for The Wolverine, he told the LA Times: “[Darren Aronofsky] said that Wolverine, in the comics, is powerful, stocky – you know, he’s short and thick. So he said, ‘I want you to go there, get bigger’.”
Sylvester Stallone
The Role: Rocky in Rocky
The Technique: For Rocky III, Stallone would do a two mile jog, 18 rounds of sparring, two hours of weightlifting and skipping. Then he would take a nap, go for a run and go for a swim.
Did They Keep It Up?:: After Rocky, Stallone’s body became instantly recognisable and he’s done another five Rocky films and four Rambo films since then. Plus a whole host of other action films.
Demi Moore
The Role: Jordan O’Neill in G.I. Jane
The Technique: Moore told Harper’s Bazaar, “I just wanted to be believable.” And believable she was, after her two hours a day pumping iron and breaking it up with a six-mile run.
Did They Keep It Up?:: Well, after 1997, Demi Moore took a break for three years. She said that preparing for the role nearly killed her, but her body isn’t looking too bad at all these days.
Christopher Reeve
The Role: Clark Kent/Superman in Superman: The Movie
The Technique: High-protein, weights and 90 minutes on a trampoline. Reeve said to a magazine in 1981, “I put on thirty pounds, all muscle, in fact, I found muscles I never knew I had.”
Did They Keep It Up?:: He continued the role for another three films, so had to keep in ship-shape for those.
Mark Wahlberg
The Role: Micky Ward in The Fighter
The Technique: In 2008, he said, “‘I get up everyday at 5am to train for a movie that might not even happen. It’s depressing.” Training for a film that isn’t even definite, there’s dedication.
Did They Keep It Up?:: Wahlberg didn’t keep up quite as intense a workout, but with a Fighter 2 likely to happen, he’ll have to get back into shape.
Robert De Niro
The Role: Jake La Motta in Raging Bull
The Technique: De Niro became La Motta. He trained with him, followed his regime and even fought in three organised boxing fights, winning two of them.
Did They Keep It Up?:: De Niro has been gaining and losing weight for his roles long before Christian Bale became renowned for it. His rolls have come and gone with his roles.
Gerard Butler
The Role: King Leonidas in 300
The Technique: The whole film has Butler in nothing more than a cape and some pants, so he needed to be flawless. Mountain climber and conditioning coach Mark Twight bulked the stars up. The workout involved pull-ups, deadlifts, pushups and flipping tyres. Once Butler was done with his co-stars, he’d then do another training session on his own. We need a sit down after hearing all that.
Did They Keep It Up?:: He’s not a real Spartan, you’d be mad to keep a training regime like that up.
Ed Norton
The Role: Derek Vinyard in American History X
The Technique: High protein and strength building exercises were the order of the day to get Ed from being a weak looking skinny fella to a neo-Nazi prison worn warrior.
Did They Keep It Up?:: Not really, Norton had to split his personality into himself and Brad Pitt to start fighting anyone in Fight Club. He still threw his own punches around though.
You have to admire their dedication, it certainly wouldn’t be me.
The first official teaser trailer for The Dark Knight Rises has been released online exactly one year and two days before the movie is due for release and you can check it out right here.
The Dark Knight Rises is the last movie in the new Batman trilogy that will see Christopher Nolan directing and he is teasing fans by releasing this trailer that mainly shows footage from the past two movies thrown together as well as showing Tom Hardy as the main villain, Bane.
If you happened to go see ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2′ over the weekend then you would have seen this trailer during the ads, if not then the producers of the movie released this trailer on the official Facebook page, via The Film Stage, for the movie.
In the trailer Liam Neeson‘s “Batman Begins” character, Ra’s Al Ghul, whispers “if you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, then you become something else entirely, a legend, Mr. Wayne, a legend.”
This is followed by another voice-over this time by Gary Oldman, who plays Commissioner Gordon, saying to Batman “we were in this together, and then you were gone, and now this evil rises. The Batman has to come back.”
In the last movie we seen Batman go into hiding after defeating the Joker and Two-Face, but as we all know Batman always comes back to save the day and this time it looks like he’s saving it from Bane.
Christian Bale will reprise his role as Batman and Anne Hathaway will take on the role of Catwoman for the new movie which hits theaters next year. I’m sure this is only the beginning of the promotional wheel, I think we should all expect a ton more of trailers and posters getting released over the coming months. Are you looking forward to ‘The Dark Knight Rises’? I can’t wait for it.
The Huffington Post have come up with a list of the 10 most embarrassing projects that some of the nominees from the 2011 Oscars have been in. Take a look and see if you have seen any of them…
Christian Bale in ‘Captain Corelli’s Mandolin’
I bet you didn’t know Christian Bale was in ‘Captain Corelli’s Mandolin.’ Maybe that’s why he’s so angry all the time.
Michelle Williams on ‘Dawson’s Creek’
I get it, it’s where she got her start. But did anyone think Jen Lindley would end up becoming one of her generation’s most nuanced actors? Unfortunately we can’t say the same for James Van Der Beek.
Jeff Bridges in ‘Tron: Legacy’
It’s embarrassing enough that ‘True Grit’s Jeff Bridges was in the first ‘Tron’ 20 years ago, but he had to go and do it again?
Natalie Portman in ‘No Strings Attached’
If Natalie Portman loses the Best Actress Oscar, fingers will start pointing to this rom-com with Ashton Kutcher. There’s a reason why A.O. Scott calls her “the only Golden Globe-winning actress to simulate sex on screen with two former members of the cast of ‘That 70s Show.’”
James Franco on ‘General Hospital’
It’s really hard to fault James Franco for this since it’s all part of his larger performance art master plan.
Nicole Kidman in ‘Batman Forever’
It would have been fine if she played opposite Christian Bale’s Batman, but she got stuck with Val Kilmer.
Mark Ruffalo in ‘Rumor Has It…’
Before he was seducing Julianne Moore away from Annette Bening, Mark Ruffalo was playing opposite Jennifer Aniston in this movie that irresponsibly associates itself with The Graduate.
Amy Adams in ‘The Wedding Date’
In this movie that apparently came out in 2005, Amy Adams was billed under Debra Messing.
Javier Bardem in ‘Eat Pray Love’
Somehow I don’t think Javier Bardem’s immense acting skills landed him this role in Eat Pray Love.
Helena Bonham Carter in ‘Planet of the Apes’
When your husband is Tim Burton and you star in all of this movies, some of them are bound to be terrible.
The 2011 Golden Globes Awards took place in Hollywood last night and there was a few surprises with the winners list, mainly The Social Network taking the award for Best Motion Picture instead of Black Swan. You can see the full winners list after jump because I don’t really want to talk about. Here is what I want to talk about:
Yes, Ricky Gervais‘s opening monologue which he pretty much went in on everyone in Hollywood and I loved every second of it. I’m sure there is probably a number of hits out on his head today.
The best one for me is when he decided to crack a joke at Tom Cruise and John Travolta, after saying Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor played two gay characters in “I Love You Philip Morris”, he then said “the complete opposite of some famous Scientologists, then.”
It was a good start to the show and really the only bit that I cared about, if these celebrities can’t take being made fun of then they are definitely in the wrong business.
When you put a bunch of Hollywood stars together in a movie there is bound to be some egos clashing, most of the time they all get on with it and act professionally or the studio keeps it under wraps. This is not always the case, here is the biggest fights and feuds that have happened on-set of a movie.
Lily Tomlin vs. David O. Russell, “I Heart Huckabeesâ€
After watching Tomlin’s sour attitude and director Russell’s epic freakouts on the set of “I Heart Huckabees,” it’s hard to tell which person started the downward slide. Was it Tomlin, whose impatience with all the changes Russell was suggesting seemed to indicate she was having a senior moment and couldn’t keep up? Or was it Russell, who might have written a more solid script to begin with and maybe should’ve thought twice before calling his leading lady a bitch or a c*** in front of the cast and crew. Pity poor Jason Schwartzman, Dustin Hoffman, Isabelle Huppert and especially the cringing, giggling Naomi Watts, who had to sit there as the abuse flew perilously close to their heads. But hooray for whoever caught this dysfunctional mess on tape. It’s infinitely more gripping than the movie.
George Clooney vs. David O. Russell, “Three Kingsâ€
Russell has a hard time pleading that what happened with Tomlin wasn’t like him, since five years earlier he got into a feud with Clooney on the set of the Gulf War satire “Three Kings” that led to Clooney punching his lights out. In fairness to Russell, he told Clooney to punch him. In fairness to Clooney, Russell was picking on the little people on the set – an extra here, a driver there – and Clooney got so tired of it, he wrote Russell an angry letter and then took to giving him a piece of his mind directly in front of his face. We think that second assistant director Paul F. Bernard had the right idea – he walked off the set when he witnessed this nonsense, quitting his job on the spot. But Ice Cube, who played a soldier alongside Clooney, said the on-set conflict gave the final scenes of the film extra juice and he “wouldn’t mind if the director and the star got into an argument on all of my movies.” Yeah, but Cube’s from South Central Los Angeles, so “Conflict” is his middle name. We’re just sorry no one caught this sandbox quarrel on tape and made a disco remix out of it.
Christian Bale vs. Shane Hurlbut, “Terminator Salvationâ€
“What don’t you f***ing understand, Shane?” Don’t you know it’s unconscionable for a Director of Photography to walk where an actor can – gasp! – see him? Even if said Director of Photography was just doing his job, fiddling with some lights, setting up a shot? Bale was concentrating really, really hard on filming a scene in “Terminator Salvation” when unlucky Hurlbut got in the way and got a four-minute, expletive-heavy earful about what a horrible person he was and how he needed to be fired, that instant. Lucky for us, someone taped it. Even luckier, someone else turned the rant into an awesome disco remix. Bale’s career has yet to recover – surely no one’s thinking of hiring him for a romantic comedy or to play a hapless single dad anytime soon. Although, Bale is next set to star in “The Fighter” directed by (wait for it) David O. Russell. Maybe they should shorten the title by a couple of letters and call it a day.
Kim Cattrall vs. Sarah Jessica Parker, “Sex and the Cityâ€
Reports of on-set bitchiness between Cattrall and Parker are so frequent, there’s got to be some truth to them, right? During production of the movie sequel spun from the hit HBO series, “sources” were busy telling sites like icelebz.com and snarkerati.com that “while the cast is all smiles on the outside, the level of dislike is unbelievable,” making “co-stars Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis dread coming into work.” One site claims Cattrall’s irritability over her recent break-up with her younger chef lover means she’s “taking every chance to snipe.” Another says Parker was overwhelmed having to care for her newborn twins and was “too busy to comfort Kim or worry about her problems at the moment.” Both ladies officially scoff at these reports. Parker said to Elle magazine recently that “I don’t think anybody wants to believe that I love Kim. I adore her. I wouldn’t have done the movie without her. Didn’t and wouldn’t.” She should’ve added “couldn’t,” seeing as Cattrall is one of the core four, after all. Cattrall has always wielded her power mercenarily, using it to demand higher pay and to confirm the sequel before Parker could. If only they’d bring this catfight onto the big screen – that might make the sequel worth watching. Barely.
Sean Young vs. Darryl Hannah, Charlie Sheen and Oliver Stone, “Wall Streetâ€
Before Sean Young made an idiot of herself showing up on a studio lot in a Catwoman outfit to beg for a part in the next “Batman” movie, she made herself into a pariah by suggesting that she should get another actress’s role… while that actress was filming it. It was on the set of Oliver Stone’s “Wall Street” that Darryl Hannah was allegedly struggling to play Charlie Sheen’s materialistic girlfriend. Stone later admitted “Hannah was not happy doing the role and I should have let her go. All my crew wanted to get rid of her after one day of shooting. My pride was such that I kept saying I was going to make it work.” Young, who had the smaller role of Michael Douglas’s wife, had no interest in making things work: she told Stone to fire Hannah and give her the plum part instead. Sheen protested Young’s antics in grade four fashion – he taped a note to her back that read “I am a c***.” Young paraded around with that sign for hours before noticing. Stone also got so fed up with Young that he wrapped one of her scenes early and had her dumped at the bus station. Long after the movie came out, Stone agreed with Young that he should’ve swapped Young and Hannah’s roles. But it’s not like he, or anyone else of any distinction, has ever hired Young again.
Debra Winger vs. Shirley MacLaine, “Terms of Endearmentâ€
Speaking of grade four hijinks, have you heard the one where Debra Winger flipped up her skirt and serenaded her onscreen mother Shirley MacLaine with her, um, wind instrument while they filmed “Terms of Endearment”? These two were at odds almost from the moment they met in writer-director James L. Brooks’ apartment. MacLaine remembers thinking “Oh my goodness” when she saw Winger clomp in dressed in combat boots and a miniskirt. Their characters were supposed to be at odds, too, so presumably Brooks indulged their feud. Lord knows how far things actually went. Winger recently copped to getting into fisticuffs with MacLaine, telling CBS News Sunday Morning that “there might have been a scuffle. I don’t remember. I mean, we were wild, you know.” Oh, we know. Thanks be to gossip, we know.
Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin vs. Everyone, “The Marrying Manâ€
Baldwin fell in love with Basinger while making the romantic comedy “The Marrying Man” in 1991 and became a married man himself shortly after. But if you know anything about how bitter their custody battle is, you can guess how volatile their courtship was. According to reports from flabbergasted crew members, between takes Basinger would tell Baldwin exactly what she wanted to do to him later in bed, not caring that other people could hear. She also didn’t wear underwear and often sat spread-eagled, forcing assistants to throw towels over her legs, and perhaps some crew members to walk around covering their own legs. Meanwhile, Baldwin would throw things whenever a scene didn’t go his way, at one point almost hitting an electrician with a chair. One crew member said, “You’ve read about all the tantrums, the chair-throwing, the phone-smashing. Living it was 100 times worse. If Baldwin slammed a door, Basinger would slam another door harder. It was like they were two little kids, having a contest to see who could be the brattiest.” A senior crew guy called their behaviour “vile, deplorable, despicable” and claimed that “if I were destitute and living on the street with no food and somebody offered me a million dollars to work with Alec and Kim, I’d pass.” Screenwriter Neil Simon also hated the experience of working with them. “With a play, I have only two people to please – myself and the director,” he said. “With this movie, it was 19 executives, a director who’d never done anything but animation before, and two stars who would tell you what lines they’d say and what lines they wouldn’t say.” Needless to say, the movie flopped. Too much drama behind the scenes, not enough left for onscreen.
Marlon Brando vs. Frank Oz, “The Scoreâ€
Oz was the voice of Miss Piggy. Brando had become a big piggy. They worked together for awhile on the heist flick “The Score” in 2001, until Brando got so fed up with being told to tone down his flamboyant performance as a homosexual crook that he started calling Oz “Miss Piggy” and telling him, “f*** you.” Other stunts the legendary actor pulled include: bringing in a note from his doctor saying he’s allergic to Oz so that he wouldn’t have to be in the same room as him; refusing to take direction from anyone but Robert De Niro, so Oz had to watch from offsite and send notes to De Niro via an assistant director; and taking off his pants so Oz had to shoot him from the waist up only. Oz later made this legendary understatement: “When you deal with someone like Marlon, you expect quirkiness.” If by “quirky” he means “jerky,” we totally agree.
Bill Murray vs. Lucy Liu, “Charlie’s Angelsâ€
We saved the best for last. Do you know why Bill Murray was replaced by Bernie Mac in the “Charlie’s Angels” sequel? Rumour has it that Murray hates Lucy Liu with a passion and refuses to work with her again. According to Variety, one day Liu complained about the writing of a scene she was shooting with Murray, then Murray complained about Liu’s critique, and soon their costars Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz were fleeing for their trailers, causing shooting to shut down for the day so Liu and Murray could cool off. Murray’s alleged to have turned to each Angel and said: “I get why you’re [Barrymore] here, and you’ve [Diaz] got talent … but what in the hell are you [Liu] doing here? You can’t act!” Liu got so enraged that she ran over and started throwing punches at Murray. Both actors later claimed they had a teensy bout of “creative differences” that was blown out of proportion, and was certainly not the cause of Murray pulling out of the sequel. Liu denied that production was shut down and said that “if I had punched him or anything, I would have remembered.” But Murray sounds more honest when he admits that “for 15 or 20 minutes there, we went to our separate corners and threw hand-grenades and sky rockets at each other.” The proof will be in whether we ever see them in another movie together. Who wants to hold their breath?
I absolutely love the last one, I can totally picture Lucy Liu flipping her shit and throwing punches at Bill Murray.
You know how it goes, stage parents throw their children into so they can live their failed attempts at stardom and also make a fortune from their children. Usually the kid ends up in rehab for drugs and alcohol. But this is not always the case as you can see from the following child stars up made a long lasting career out of it.
DREW BARRYMORE, Age: 34
Years in Show Business: 33
The fourth generation in an acting family, Drew appeared in a commercial when she was eleven months old.

CHRISTINA RICCI, Age: 29
Years in Show Business: 23
Like many others, Christina was a child model until she got her first acting gig in the 1990 movie “Mermaids” with Cher. After the success of “The Addams Family,” she became known for quirky and sometimes dark roles.

LEONARDO DICAPRIO, Age: 34
Years in Show Business: 19
Leo is a late-comer compared to some, getting his first break at 15 on the short-lived TV version of “Parenthood” in 1990.

KIRSTEN DUNST, Age: 27
Years in Show Business: 24

JENNIFER CONNELLY, Age: 38
Years in Show Business: 27

Christian Bale has revealed that he is still embarrassed by the F-bombing rant (35 times!) that he unleashed on Shane Hurlbut while on the set of “Terminator Salvation”.
The actual rant took place in 2008, but was leaked onto the internet in February, 2009. The rant lasted four long minutes, but Bale says that he hopes that won’t keep fans out of the theaters.
He has since apologized, while pundits made fun and the rant got a remix.
He says:
“I did what I did. I’m not hiding that. I went overboard. You’ll often try things and they’re abysmal, sometimes they’re embarrassing beyond belief but you’ve got to be able to try them and trust that it’s not going to be put out there and mocked. I’m not making any excuses. I’m not whining. Hey listen, I did it… it’s in public space. Hey, I take the consequences for it. It’s not in anyone’s interest to know that much. I get that they want to hear about it but to me I look at it as old-school movie magic and with magic you do not reveal your secrets.”
He also wants to come back for another “Terminator” movie and hopes his rant won’t get the movie punished by fans of the franchise.
He adds, “I’d like to return to it, if people embrace it. It’s up to him out there.”
Sam Worthington, the Aussie actor about to shoot into the stratosphere with his performance in Terminator Salvation, is being tipped as the next Batman.
Christian Bale and Sam Worthington in the upcoming Terminator Salvation.
Sam Worthington‘s fame is set to explode in the US with the May release of Terminator Salvation, and again in December when James Cameron’s Avatar is released in cinemas.
Cameron, also the creator of Terminator, says he is the breakout star of both films.
That could mean replacing Bale, his Terminator co-star and The Dark Knight lead, whose profile was damaged after his infamous “me, me, me” meltdown on the Terminator set, which recently hit the internet.
