8. Mark Wahlberg

Even macho man Mark Wahlberg is sometimes asked to pack on the pounds. For his role in Pain & Gain, Wahlberg pushed his limits by gaining 40 pounds of muscle in just seven weeks.

Actually most of the actors in the movie had to go on strict diets and extreme workout schedules. The Rock advised them along with Mark, and two of them actually used this to promote the movie.

This was the first time that the off screen transformation was an integral part of movie and its promotion. Based on a true story, I think it’s time to check out Pain & Gain once more.
