Not for the Faint Hearted! 45-Year-Old Tom Hardy Goes Through Hell For His Movies Including ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ and ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’


The 45-year-old English actor Tom Hardy is no doubt one of the best actors of the time. He has not only gained worldwide recognition for starring in movies like The Dark Knight Rises, Mad Max: Fury Road, and Venom but has also gained critical acclaim for his performances. The Oscar nominee is also among some of the movie stars who are known for changing their appearances according to their roles.
Hardy has taken extreme measures to transform for her on-screen characters. Reports have revealed that his training schedule and diet vary as per his characters in the movies.

Tom Hardy’s Drastic Physical TransformationsTom Hardy has been through several body transformations throughout his career. The 2008 biographical crime drama Bronson was the first film to feature his drastic transformation into Michael Peterson. Since the 2008 film, he has opted for the same method to adapt his several on-screen characters, from Warrior to Mad Max: Fury Road.
For his role in the 2008 movie, he gained around 40 lbs within five weeks. He weighed 150lbs during the movie, and it increased to 181lbs for his 2011 film Warrior. For his role as the DC villain Bane in The Dark Knight Rises, he once again gained around 30 lbs, taking his total weight to 200lbs.

However, the method he opted for gaining weight is not considered very healthy. “I started eating, and my arse very quickly got very fat,” Hardy shared, talking about his role in Bronson. The Venom star opted for the same method for his DC role. Although it did help him reach the goal he aimed for, it was too much for him.
He has also admitted that he might have damaged his body too much. “I’m only little! If I keep putting on weight, I’ll collapse like a house of cards under too much pressure,” he said during an interview. Not only his diet, Hardy is also known to follow a strict workout routine and doesn’t even take a single day off.

Tom Hardy Does Not Take a Day Off From His Training RoutineApart from his diet, which included a huge intake of sugar, processed carbs, and saturated fats, Tom Hardy also followed a strict workout plan for his roles. And he is known not to take a single day off. Hardy starts his week with shoulders, as he believes that it doesn’t require as much effort as other muscle groups.
“I’m training now. Even though I’m smoking. I’m meant to drop 30 pounds, so smoking and one meal a day is my training at the moment,” he shared. He also said that he had to spend seven days a week fighting for the 2015 movie. However, with time, it has started taking a toll on his body, and the Legend star has said that he has become mindful of his training routines.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
