To pull off being off a believable bodybuilder on the silver screen, an actor has to put in the requisite work. No questions asked. They’ve got to push themselves in the gym, leaving no dumbbell<\/a> or loaded barbell<\/a> unturned. Then, with their body at its absolute limit, they’ve got to stay impeccably disciplined in the kitchen \u2014 sculpting an incredible physique<\/a> through a controlled and focused nutritional plan<\/a>. That appears to be the road map Jonathan Majors followed for his latest feature film, “Magazine Dreams,” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on Jan. 20, 2023.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 21, 2023, a short video interview with Majors and other “Magazine Dreams” cast members appeared on Variety’s<\/em> website<\/a>. Among some of the more notable tidbits, the superstar actor revealed that he ate 6,100 calories daily for four consecutive months<\/strong> to transform into fictional amateur bodybuilder Killian Maddox. It’s an illuminating insight into a professional who will seemingly pull out all the stops to pay proper homage to a challenging sport. A video interview with Deadline Hollywood<\/em> below has Majors further discussing parts of his preparatory process. <\/p>\n
