The Oscars of transformation

Many actors take their craft seriously, often in some major changes in physical appearance in a role - either weight bloodshed, fattening up o muscling up.

The following are some of the most incredible physical changes to a role in a film.

1. Christian Bale (Machinest, Batman begins, the fighter)
Bale is probably the ultimate prize as both lost more weight and a ton of muscle. The Machinist - probably one of the most astonishing loses to a seen roll - the 6' Bale limiting himself to 121 pounds (loss of 63 pounds) to play an Insomniac, only to pack 100 pounds worth of muscle in 5 months for his role as the Crusader camped. More recently, Bale fell one-third of their body weight to portray Eklund Dicky in the hunt. It is no wonder the boy is grumpy.

2. Robert De Niro: (raging bull)
Put in an incredible 60 pounds for his role of Jake La Motta in Scorsese classic.

3. Renee Zelwegger (Bridget Jones's diary)
Move from a size 6 to a size of 14 playing the charming and endearing Bridget Jones. Then he made it all again to his role as a Bridget Jones deeply sad and irritating.

4. Jared Leto (Chapter 27)
Leto packed in 67 pounds to play the murderer of John Lennon, Mark David Chapman. Far cry from playing to a thin drug addict in Requiem for a dream and one of the greatest athletes of all time in Prefontaine - a biographical film about the legend of middle distance Steve Prefontaine.

5. Vincent D'Onofrio (Full Metal Jacket)
D'Onofrio gained 70 pounds over a period of seven months for his role in the film of Kubrick war Pvt. Lawrence Leonard.

6. Matt Damon (value under fire)
Before her role in Good Will Hunting, Damon fell almost 50 pounds for his role as a heroin addict opposite Denzel Washington. A success does not recognize Damon, "went too far." I got sick and not do it again because it was much. At the same time he helped the performance. Do not have to act in everything - was a ruin. I was getting dizzy spells and hot flashes. Damon has also undergone fluctuations - skinny and pale in 1999 The Talented Mr. Ripley to load up the Bourne films, winning 35 then pounds of fat by the informant, followed by muscling for Invictus.

7. Linda Hamilton (Terminator 2)
Not sure how much muscle you put this role, but he sought to grated - away from her "softer" search series beauty and the beast. 3 hours daily work including; cardio, weights, work of ab and a diet "nonfat". First 90!

8. Charlize Theron (Monster)
Only in Hollywood is a woman of 20 pounds to become a woman of normal size.

9. Tom Hanks (Philadelphia, Castaway)
Hanks has managed both the Oscar and double weight loss, falling 26 pounds for his role as winner of an Oscar as a victim of AIDS in Philadelphia. Years later Hanks would be "double" this feat, breaking off 55 pounds for Castaway while at the same time grows an antibarro long locks and beard.

10. 50 Cent (things fall apart)
The star of hip-hop/actor to the headlines last year when he went from 214 to 160 to play a football player who was diagnosed with cancer. It did so with a liquid diet and copious amounts of walking on the treadmill.

For many Hollywood stars, his obsessive dedication of the border to their profession often pays dividends payment awards night.

I beg the question though; When is "too much".? Subjected to this kind of metamorphosis they can have two short- and long-term health consequences.
