Dallas Buyers Club, starring Jared Leto, a.o.
Jared Leto, like co-star Matthew McConaughey, had to get in shape for his role in Dallas Buyers Club. Leto, who was already at a healthy weight, shed an additional 40 pounds for the role of the transsexual lady with AIDS. He went to great lengths to achieve his weight loss target. According to Leto, he stopped eating, which is difficult and potentially harmful. He said he was a different person after dropping all that weight. Leto is incredibly committed to his work; this isn’t the first time he’s had to undergo a physical transformation for a job.
