How did he do it? Lots of money and resources.
Comedian and actor Kumail Nanjiani totally stunned the internet with his new superhero body ahead of his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The actor, who was previously known for his roles in indie rom-coms like The Big Sick or sitcoms like Silicon Valley, was announced as a cast member for the upcoming MCU film The Eternals.
In a post on his own Instagram page, Nanjiani acknowledged that he achieved the body thanks to the help of top trainers and coaches, paid for “by the biggest studio in the world.”
He wrote:
“I would not have been able to do this if I didn’t have a full year with the best trainers and nutritionists paid for by the biggest studio in the world.
“I’m glad I look like this, but I also understand why I never did before. It would have been impossible without these resources and time.”
