Of course, for the needs of many roles, the director can also ask the actors to be more inclined to the characters in the script in form. Some actors gain weight for their roles, while others lose weight for their roles. It is the normal state of this industry.
For example, Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng once asked actors to be particularly fat in order to lose weight, and actors themselves could not be so fat. Later, the effect was achieved through makeup.
In Chinese Restaurant, there is an episode in which Alec Su is a guest. Andy revealed that he auditioned for the movie Left Ear, but failed. What are the reasons for condemning Alec Su? Alec Su replied with a smile, perhaps because he is too fat.
Of course, if it is a joke, it may not be because of the figure, but because of the suitability of the role. After all, if the actors were closer to the characters themselves, the film would have been half successful.
But as an actress, figure is really important. In order to keep fit, many actresses even eat only a few mouthfuls of rice and only a few cucumbers and vegetables, which is really much worse than us ordinary people.
It is better for us ordinary people. We can eat whatever we want and then lose weight after eating. Satisfy our appetite. In addition, whether we keep in good condition will not affect our career. From this point of view, it is better for us ordinary people.
But from the artist's point of view, because of their professional needs and good treatment, there are naturally many demands. Moreover, in the entertainment circle, the update is particularly fast. If you indulge your role a little, people will be replaced. The actress's prime time is only that long.
If you don't become famous at a good age, it's hard to get ahead. Therefore, it is very important to seize the good opportunity. Keep in good shape and be ready to sprint at any time. Maybe it will be a hit one day.
