He brought up James Dean and other actors. You know, he's right. I remember James Dean not wanting to bulk up for his Superman role...Apparently Pattinson is refusing advice from trainers to work out for the role because he wants to confront body image issues.

The film studio hired a trainer who left Pattinson with a Bosu ball, a single weight, and a sincere plea to use both, but right now, he says, he’s ignoring her. “I think if you’re working out all the time, you’re part of the problem,” he says, sighing. By “you” he means other actors. “You set a precedent. No one was doing this in the ’70s. Even James Dean—he wasn’t exactly ripped.” He says that back when he was the star of the Twilight franchise, “the one time they told me to take my shirt off, I think they told me to put it back on again.” But Batman is Batman. Pattinson called another actor on the film, Zoë Kravitz, the other day, and she said she was exercising five days a week during their exile from set. Pattinson, well: “Literally, I’m just barely doing anything,” he says, sighing again.
Hilarious. You are playing a superhero. Plenty of movies hhave s***ty looking roles. Big Lebowski, Monster, The Machinest to name a few. You're an actor. Half your job is to look the part.Sounds more like he just doesn't want to work out to me
Nothing strikes fear into the hearts of criminals more than a CrossFit Batman lol
