Speaking of DeNiro, remember when he gained like 30 lbs to play Capone? I know other actors have done the same. All I can say is I would NEVER deliberately gain weight for nobody, no way, no how. Can you imagine the work to lose it?
He actually gained even more weight prior to that for "Raging Bull."
I remember reading that after the Capone part his doctors told him to never do it again. Too much strain n the heart.
He went from 150 to 210 for "Raging Bull."
