I heard it was 15 pounds.
I'll defer, since I didn't read any direct reports, just some fan speculation. I think Orlando was interviewed for EW, and might have given a figure. Any weight he puts on will be fine with me, especially since I can't imagine him not putting on weight and then wearing chain mail.
Some of it may not even be for the film specifically, just regular age-related weight gain. Most guys I know put on at least 10lbs between 25 and 30. Of course, most men I know are actuaries, so I may not be the best judge.
New Line is making a movie of Dante's Inferno.
The
fuck
? Also, they want to make movies of
Purgatorio
and
Paradiso
? How the hell do they plan to do that, when
nothing happens
?! I don't even see what the purpose of an
Inferno
movie is. It has two characters, and they see a bunch of stuff in hell, and they meet Satan. And that's it. There's no real
story
to it.
IMDB's Orlando page is telling me that they're filming PotC 2 & 3 simultaneously. Is this true?
15 lb. makes much more sense. A 6'5" linebacker who already weighs 250 can talk casually of adding 60 lbs. (although I think he'll be sorry later in life), but I don't think a guy I can pick up one-handed can do that kind of thing without a thyroid condition.
Sheesh, Barry's NSM with the subtle, huh? He is like those Hollywood women who get famous and
then
get their noses done. Like, honey, it's too late now. We know what you look like already.
Concur on the WTF for making a movie out of
Inferno.
For one thing, you'd have to stop the movie every 10 minutes and explain who all the dead people are, because Dante was the world's original name-dropper.

That's what I heard. It's the LoTR model - cuts the production costs for the expensive sets etc.
What's that I hear from the West? The sound of ita's arm being twisted unbearably?
No, just the neighbor kids shrieking again.
Hey, I'll have you know that took ten whole minutes.

Huh. It's taking much longer to drool over the pics. Especially the one with his eyes closed titled Troy.
Yum!
Bale gained slightly over 60 pounds between his last movie role and the next one, but it took him from Auschwitz survivor-style emaciation in The Machinist to being Batman. I don't think you can quickly gain that much weight without (1) starting out from an unhealthily thin state; or (2) ending up unhealthily bloated.
