It's not surprising, given how they have to hurl themselves across the screen and dive over buildings and explosions, that actors need to be extra-fit.

There's also the role itself that often requires it - and Ryan Reynolds playing the Merc with a Mouth, Deadpool, is one such example. His co-star, Josh Brolin, has spent much of the previous months posting Instagram photos and videos of him in the gym and getting jacked - and it looks like Reynolds is about to do the same.

Reynolds' trainer, Don Saladino, posted this image below which shows just how shredded the actor has become to get into shape for Deadpool 2.

 

You've got to respect that kind of dedication. Now hand us another donut.
