Seems to me it would have been far easier to find a stunt double around his size or a little bigger than to expect RP to gain that much upper body mass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats on the production team though. RP has certainly done what he needs to do IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way that's even close to 50 lbs and those aren't typical before/after pictures. That first picture is clearly from his Twilight days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 It’s not impressive. Less impressive when you’re getting paid his salary to do it. Even less so when you have access to the resources WB surely provided him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as obtuse as thinking growing up and establishing certain habits over time don't influence your body in any way at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Most guys who are that huge are ****ty actors. I don't think people realize how much of an albatross guys like Hemsworth and Affleck are that have the acting chops AND the natural size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think Pattinson looks fine in the Batsuit, I'm not that concerned about the weight. He was never going to be Batfleck. Your original post I quoted, however, was pretty much wrong on every level. Using two pictures set a decade apart showing progress any actor could achieve in 3-6 months and then somehow making the baffling conclusion that the difference was 50 lbs of muscle is frankly pure nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Context matters I can't speak for others, but if I had to guess, I think most of us assumed the "After" picture was what he looked like in his twilight days. That "Before" picture looks damn near anorexic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
