Hugh Jackman

Hugh Jackman first played Wolverine in the first edition of X-Men (2000). There has been a dramatic transformation in his physique ever since. On being asked about his diet, Hugh said, “The Wolverine diet is strict. It has about 4000 calories a day, maybe 4 and a half cause I’m bulking up. Always protein, 6 times a day, steam vegetables, and occasion brown rice.”

“I had to be in peak condition for the role. I went on a water dehydration diet so I can be as ripped and cut as possible. Twenty to thirty hours of not drinking any water and I had a nasty headache. You start cranking up.”
