The ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ actor claims the only way he can ensure he
pushes himself to the limit when he’s in the gym is to pretend he is the
mutant anti-hero.
Hugh, who sports an incredibly muscular physique in the new movie, said: “I
work out imagining I’m Wolverine. Wolverine to me is the guy that when
everybody else quits, that’s where he begins. I think that’s why people love
him.”
The 40-year-old actor – who was named Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine
last year – admits it took him a year to get in shape for the action-packed
film, adding he also had to overhaul his diet.
He said: “I think we’ve wiped out entire gene pools of chickens. To any
vegetarians out there, I really apologise.”
Hugh, 40, has previously revealed his wife Deborra-Lee Furness was appalled
by the way his body changed for the film - because he made her look bad.
He said: “She gets very annoyed. She says, 'A husband's job is to be fat and
flabby and make me look fabulous.' She said I wasn't living up to my end of
the bargain."
