When starring in movies like “American Hustle” or “The Hangover,” 40-year-old actor Bradley Cooper is able to stay at his normal weight — around 185 pounds.
But for his Oscar-nominated role as Navy SEAL Chris Kyle in “American Sniper,” Cooper had to bulk up to play the 225-pound sniper.
Kyle, who died in 2013 after being shot by a former Marine who was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, had 160 confirmed kills under his belt from his time as a Navy SEAL sniper in Iraq.
“I had to get to the point where I believed I was him,” Cooper told Men's Health magazine. “At 185 pounds, it would’ve been a joke. His size was such a part of who he was … Chris wasn’t ripped. He wasn’t sinewy. He was just a bear.”
