“I’m quite curious… what happened to Dave Bautista?”, one user asked while comparing images of the actor from different stages. 👀
The transformation was intentional. Bautista reached around 143 kilos for Knock at the Cabin and then decided to lose weight because, as he said, he had come to feel “uncomfortably large”. Through jiu-jitsu, cardio, and changes to his diet, he lost around 34 kilos, bringing his weight to about 109.
The actor acknowledged that he also lost some of the enormous muscle mass that had defined his image for years, but said he felt more comfortable and physically better. Now, after being cast as Kratos for God of War, he has stepped up his weight training again. 💪🔥
