Subscribe to ListverseTop 15 Celebrity Transformations
- Published November 4, 2007 - 115 Comments
Actors are frequently called upon to change their appearance for movies, but sometimes they go well beyond the call of duty. This is a list of the 15 most amazing celebrity transformations for film.
15. Renee Zellweger Bridget Jones
For her part in Bridget Jones’ Diary, Renee gains nearly 13 kilos (28 pounds). She is one of the few on the list who probably look better after the transformation than at her normal weight.
14. Charlize Theron Monster
Granted, it is makeup – but not only is this incredible transformation a physical one, it is also an incredible transformation of attitude. It is hard to believe that the woman in the first photograph is the same beautiful, graceful woman in the second.
13. Hilary Swank Boys don’t Cry
In Boys Don’t Cry, Hilary Swank plays a girl who wants to be a boy. Her gender transformation ultimately leads to problems. This film is based on a true story.
12. Ellen Burstyn Requiem for a Dream
Ellyn Burstyn, most famous for her role as the mother in The Exorcist, appears in Requiem for a Dream as a prescription drug addicted woman who takes speed for weightloss.
11. Benicio Del Toro Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Normally a suave, slim man in movies, here we see Benecio after a very large weight gain for his role in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
10. Jared Leto Chapter 27
Jared Leto gained a huge amount of weight (making him virtually unrecognizable) in order to play the part of Mark Chapman – the assassin of John Lennon.
9. Gary Oldman The Contender
Gary Oldman is a very versatile actor with a great reputation for being able to adapt to varied roles. Another great transformation by this same actor is, of course, when he played the character of Drexel in True Romance.
8. Donnie Wahlberg The Sixth Sense
Here we see the normally buff actor Donnie Wahlberg (brother of Mark Wahlberg – AKA Marky Mark) slimming down to play a psychotic patient of the character played by Bruce Willis in the Sixth Sense.
7. Edward Norton American History X
With American History X, Edward Norton really changed the way people looked at him. For this film he bulked up and plays a hard-nosed white supremacist.
6. Tom Hanks Castaway
Hanks lost an immense amount of weight for his role in Castaway. When he starts out in the film he is his normal weight – over the duration of filming he slowly slims down to almost dangerous levels.
5. Robert De Niro The Untouchables
Here we see an unusually large Robert De Niro playing the part of Al Capone in this Brian de Palma film.
4. Vincent D’Onofrio Full Metal Jacket
D’Onofrio gains an immense amount of weight to play the part of the somewhat simple Private Pyle in this brilliant Kubrick film.
3. Eric Bana Chopper
Here Bana gains weight and loses muscle mass to play the part of Mark Read. This film tells the intense story of Mark “Chopper” Read, a legendary criminal who wrote his autobiography while serving a jail sentence in prison.
2. Gerard Butler 300
Gerard Butler bulked himself up for his role in 300 as King Leonidas. The result of his efforts is the envy of virtually every geek in the world!
1. Christian Bale The Machinist
For this role of insomniac Trevor Reznik, Christian Bale lost 28.5 KG (63 pounds) for his role in this film. In order to lose weight, he ate one apple and one can of tuna per day. This is the largest amount of weight any actor has lost for a film. It was a hard decision for first and second place on this list – but Bale came first because he has managed to gain and lose weight rapidly for various roles – all within a short timeframe.
Bonus One: Gwyneth Paltrow Shallow Hal
Gwyneth Paltrow did an amazing job gaining so much weight for Shallow Hal – and then losing it all again afterwards! You will notice above that she barely fits in the first photograph, whereas a mere year later, there is plenty of room for her. Her dietician must be making a fortune!
Bonus Two: Elijah Wood Lord of the Rings
The dimensions of the images above don’t truly show the great transformation that Elijah Wood underwent for his role in the Lord of the Rings. Not only did he manage to grow hair on his feet and enlarge them, he managed to knock a few feet off his height. I can’t even begin to imagine the surgeries he must have undergone to reduce his height so much – or, in fact, the reversal operation which made his legs the right length again. What an amazingly dedicated actor.
Notable Omissions: Adrian Brody – the Pianist

November 4th, 2007 at 1:18 pm
Also, Robert De niro on Raging Bull, gained a lot of weight.
November 4th, 2007 at 1:22 pm
How could you forget Andy Serkis? He managed to turn himself green for his role as Gollum in LOTR!
November 4th, 2007 at 1:24 pm
Tim Curry in Legend is the most drastic transformation ever!
November 4th, 2007 at 1:37 pm
surgery to reduce height!! are you sure?
November 4th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
heavybison: the bonus items are both jokes
November 4th, 2007 at 1:47 pm
#3 looks like Corey Feldman. I don’t know who Eric Bana is, never heard of him.
November 4th, 2007 at 2:47 pm
Emily: he is an Australian actor – and you are right – he DOES look like Corey Feldman
November 4th, 2007 at 2:53 pm
What about John Travolta? Take his normal image and couple it against both Pulp Fiction and Primary Colors! Here ya go:
http://akvis.com/img/examples/sketch/sketch-portrait/john-travolta-photo.jpg
versus:http://www.travolta.com/image/pulp_hs.jpg
and:http://www.travolta.com/image/colors_hs.jpg
Or even Battlefield Earth for that matter:

November 4th, 2007 at 3:31 pm
I agree that Ms. Zellweger is much more attractive post-transformation. A case might be made for Ms. Paltrow as well (call it a toss up).
November 4th, 2007 at 4:51 pm
Well, here we have Ewan McGregor
As Jedi Master Obi Wan Kenobi:

November 4th, 2007 at 4:52 pm
Christian Bale is an amazingly versatile actor. Reminds me a lot of Daniel Day-Lewis in regard to his commitment to character. What is most impressive to me is how Bale refines his accent to suit each character he takes on.
I remember Matt Damon lost a lot of weight for Courage Under Fire. Conversely, Sylvester Stallone put on an impressive amount of weight for Cop Land. And Daniel Day-Lewis, playing a man with cerebral palsy with only the ability to move his left foot, learned to write with his left foot and broke two ribs staying hunched over in character while filming for weeks. Not a real before/after transformation, but a remarkable one nonetheless.
November 4th, 2007 at 5:13 pm
You picked that Gary Oldman film? Why not Hannibal? That transformation is much more shocking.
November 4th, 2007 at 5:16 pm
i would have been extremely dissapointed if christian bale had not been included in this. He actually wanted to loose even more weight then he did for The Machinest.
November 4th, 2007 at 5:39 pm
What’s insane about Chrisian Bale is that a month after filming ended on the Machinest, he had to bulk up in three months to start filming Batman. He doesn’t even look like the same person in the two movies!
November 4th, 2007 at 5:55 pm
Vincent D’Onofrio is gaining weight again, I’m not sure why. He is looking decidedly chunky in this seasons episodes of Law & Order: CI.
Not terribly surprising, given rumors of a near nervous breakdown a season or so ago. Serious enough so that the producers brought in another team of detectives to give D’Onofrio more time off to take care of himself.
November 4th, 2007 at 6:29 pm
Oh, sorry for the double post…I’m still confused about what happened, but whatever.
November 4th, 2007 at 6:58 pm
I hope you were joking about Gwyneth Paltrow, because she was wearing a FAT SUIT!

Any of you guys ever notice that Rene Zellweger never actually smiles? She always has that tight, squinty-eyed look, and her mouth curves upward, but it looks forced and fake. She looks like that in every picture. It really bugs me.
November 4th, 2007 at 9:34 pm
Don’t forget Emile Hirsch in the fabulous and now-playing-in-a-theater-near-you Into the Wild.
November 4th, 2007 at 9:59 pm
Wow, no De Niro in Raging Bull? That has to be the most incredible transformation to date. He gained 60 pounds to play the role!
November 4th, 2007 at 10:13 pm
Awesome list! I agree on all, especially Renee! I love the hilarious bonus items. I can’t believe people didn’t get it! Do they really believe someome who could post such a brilliant site is actually that stupid? Come on guys, get with the program.
November 5th, 2007 at 9:48 am
Wow I had no idea that guy in Full Metal Jacket was Vincent D’Onofrio.
In other news, Renee Zellweger is never good-looking.
November 5th, 2007 at 11:02 am
I have to agree with the other people who commented on Robert DeNiro, in Raging Bull.
This is the first time I have looked at a lists title and had something in mind that must be there and it wasn’t. Which is a pretty good average considering all of the lists on this site!
Check out pic below

November 5th, 2007 at 12:38 pm
what about Michael Chiklis.
The commish – Tony Scali. Then as the buff actor he is today. When he started the shield, most people didn’t realize it was the same actor.
November 5th, 2007 at 2:37 pm
Steroids can be attributed to most of the guy bulking up transformations… ’specially bale. If what that dude said was true about the three month span in-between movies… to gain that amount of muscle almost certainly needed some ’special’ juice.
November 5th, 2007 at 2:54 pm
A lot of this is simple cosmetics. Makeup and special effects. Granted the weight gain-loss ones are a bit remarkable.
November 5th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
dan: that is true – but still quite impressive
November 5th, 2007 at 6:07 pm
The one that always springs to mind for me is Dennis Quaid as Doc Holliday in Tombstone. The guy lost so much weight to play the tuberculer gunfighter/dentist/ all around freaky dude that I read somwhere he actually made himself sick.
November 5th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
I agree Dennis Quaid was a great transformation.
November 5th, 2007 at 7:47 pm
OMG – what a shock. I had no idea that character was Vincent D’Onofrio and find it hard to believe.
I second the Michael Chiklis extreme transformation. Would have put him second behind Bale because he not only went from powder puff to serious buff but the accompanying transformation of character is as extreme.
November 5th, 2007 at 7:59 pm
Mr. Mojo- What about Tim Curry’s transformation in The Rocky Horror Picture Show? lol
Wow, I had no idea that was Donnie Wahlberg in The Sixth Sense!
November 5th, 2007 at 8:28 pm
Please consider adding Carrot Top to the list. Google Image him for a recent pic. HUGE CHANGE.
November 6th, 2007 at 2:32 am
I thought for sure Britney Murphy would fit on this list.
November 6th, 2007 at 5:09 am
Clues: What is the big change that Britney Murphy underwent? I really like her – she is much underrated I think.
November 7th, 2007 at 5:17 am
J: I was speaking of her transformation from geeky teen to beautiful starlet.
I did not see that you were speaking of transformations for just 1 film. My apologies
November 7th, 2007 at 11:49 am
I had no idea that was Vincent D’Onofrio in Full Metal Jacket! Wow! I have noticed as well his recent weight gain and thought it was odd.
“Chopper” was a great movie! My husband thinks I’m crazy, but it came on a few times on IFC and I watched it every time. Eric Bana’s best performance I’d say.
November 8th, 2007 at 5:21 pm
Wow… Edward Norton, Eric Banner, D’Onofrio and Gerard Butler =o!!!
-sigh- Jared Leto was so hot….
November 12th, 2007 at 11:59 am
Jared isnt just an actor… hes the lead singer of 30 seconds to mars! an excellent band and to top it all off they did this one music vid called from yesterday and it shows his hot, hot, hotness!
November 12th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
Gwyneth Paltrow didn’t gain all that weight, it was a fat suit. Correct me if I’m wrong.
November 20th, 2007 at 10:43 am
LOL, love the bonuses!! XDDDD
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:17 am
Very entertaining list. Fe:Dennis Quaid portrayed Doc Holiday in the film Wyatt Earp not Tombstone.
Val Kilmer played Doc Holiday in Tombstone.
November 25th, 2007 at 2:07 am
What about that dude in the Pianist?
December 1st, 2007 at 1:18 am
I knew right away that Bale would be #1. Great llist.
Agree Renee looks better “transformed”.
December 1st, 2007 at 2:55 am
I enjoy seeing Gerard Butler’s photo. The pattern of the rest of the collection shows the “movie role” then “usual” look… Butler must attract alot of attention as a Spartan man in the streets. : )
January 11th, 2008 at 2:01 am
Wow..all of my friends talk about “The Machinist” and this is my first time actually seeing a picture of him from the movie. That shit is nuts. He probably got crazy paid for that part.
January 11th, 2008 at 2:20 am
Didn’t Donnie Wahlberg lose weight for Stephen King’s “Dreamcatcher” too? He did really good in that movie.
January 11th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
So, um, what was Mark “Chopper” Read doing serving a jail sentence in prison, of all places?
January 30th, 2008 at 8:53 am
christian bale looks absolutely terrifying in the machinist. that’s freaking dedication. a little worrisome, actually.
also, hillary swank was so hot in boys don’t cry.
February 7th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Elijah Wood did not have a surgery
DDDDDD so stupid who wrote that…
February 18th, 2008 at 10:57 pm
You do realize that Shallow Hal’s Gwenyth Paltrow was just a fat suit right? She didn’t do as much as the other actors in changing her appearance for the film
February 21st, 2008 at 8:16 pm
http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2006/10/18/movie-notes-when-great-actors-go-flabby-or-skinny/
similar list
February 22nd, 2008 at 1:17 pm
Gary Oldman is the king of transformations. He is an amazing actor, never the same character 2ce. My favorite characters are Dracula and Drexl Spivey in “True Romance”. Love both of those movies. This is a great list.
March 8th, 2008 at 8:52 pm
Wow…um, people, the bonus’ were jokes. I hope you’re kidding about #’s 50 and 51 (the comments). If you’re both kidding, my apologies.
And it is very possible for Bale to have gone through that transformation without steroids, as one poster (at least) suggested. It’s called dedication to your profession, which he has a lot of.
March 24th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
Gerard Butler……….. DROOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He’s all sorts of yummy in that movie.
Lord almighty, where is that man in real life? *growl*
May 4th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Gerard Butler he looks hot wen eva lol n elijah wood height u sure it wasnt computerisied i mean surely the height can be shortened if all those effects can be added right?
May 5th, 2008 at 9:43 am
what about dustin hoffman in “Little Big Man?”
May 17th, 2008 at 11:11 pm
wasn’t Gwyneth Paltrow in a fat suit for Shallow Hal? I know i have it on dvd and only seen it once but i know she is in a fat suit…
June 5th, 2008 at 11:23 am
What about the guy from ‘That 70s show’ when he had to play venom …oh and the last two are bonuses note:to all grammer nazis i never chek fo grammmmer
June 5th, 2008 at 11:25 am
(i left this out of my recent post) the last two bonuses are jokes..
June 8th, 2008 at 10:03 am
Emma Thompson in “Wit” (although it was an HBO film and not a released flick) — her transformation is stunning.
June 10th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Jared Leto is awesome :]
His band is great too.
He also looked pretty weird in Girl, Interupted.
He had a mustache.
And he liked drugs.
June 18th, 2008 at 10:48 am
You’re kidding about Paltrow, right? It’s called prosthetics. Look into it.
July 25th, 2008 at 9:58 pm
Are you serious? Gwyneth Paltrow was wearing a fat suit. Did you do any actual research here?
July 25th, 2008 at 10:07 pm

heavybison: the bonus items are both jokes
prime example why its so important to read preceding comments prior to commenting
July 26th, 2008 at 11:45 pm
i definitely think that Heath ledger as the Joker in the Dark Knight needs to be added now
August 3rd, 2008 at 5:04 pm
not having deniro in raging bull invalidates this list. and i agree with the addition of heath ledger
August 14th, 2008 at 2:44 pm
I like that Ed Norton is on the list, but he also had to DROP all of the muscle in order to play “narrator” in Fight Club.
August 21st, 2008 at 3:45 am
Granted some of the actors listed made great effort to fit the role they were playing but I think it should have focused on people who are virtually a different person each time you see them in a new role.
This is where I would say Gary Oldman is number one as he is able to change his appearance as well as changing his demeanour to suit the character he is playing perfectly.
Just look at a few movie’s he is in on IMDB and I think each of you would quote “That was him?”
Fifth Element, True Romance, Hannibal, Harry Potter series and Batman…. oh and on that note what about Heath Ledger and his captivating performance in the latest Batman flick.
So anywho… it would have been great to see a few actors that didn’t just put on a few pounds to fit the role.
August 24th, 2008 at 1:28 am
the Paltrow one… she wore a fat suit… and that picture on the left is from the film Shallow Hal starring Paltrow and Jack Black….
September 22nd, 2008 at 12:35 pm
Renee Zellweger in Bridget Jones Diary gets my vote. A real woman, not a pipe cleaner cum Auschwitz survivor.
September 23rd, 2008 at 8:44 am
The Grinch and Big mama’s house and many more. shallow list…
September 26th, 2008 at 2:58 am
i hate these bonuses after a list. they kind of sound lame.
September 30th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
It bothers me the amount of people who didn’t “get” the bonuses
October 7th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
Haha, I love the bonus ones!
I knew Christian Bale would be on this list. Man, did he look so unhealthy in The Machinist!
Hialry Swank did a great job in Boys dont cry (very sad movie actually.) but I prefer her as a woman, her normal, hot self!
I didnt even realize it was Eric Bana in Chopper! He looks well different.
October 22nd, 2008 at 5:23 am
Can’t get over the Charlize Theron one
She’s so pretty in real life
But she looks like such a dog in Monster…
November 9th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
i heard that donnie wahlberg lost like 45 pounds to be in the sixth sense.
November 23rd, 2008 at 3:33 pm
paltrow didn’t actually gain that weight… it’s a “fat” suit and makeup and stuff..
November 26th, 2008 at 2:28 am
where’s michael jackson?
November 30th, 2008 at 11:52 pm
@Anthonymous
Hahaha! That’s the funniest comment i’ve seen on this list!
November 30th, 2008 at 11:56 pm
jessi – Please read comment number 5 from the site administrator. Please consider reading all the comments before you add yours.
December 10th, 2008 at 3:59 am
BIG mistake, Gwyneth Paltrow did not loose weight, she WAS wearing a fat suit!
Do your research better because you could loose your credibility this way…
December 10th, 2008 at 4:31 am
dimitar, read the comments first. Especially #5.
December 12th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
DeNiro’s Raging Bull (noted before) is incredible because he did two transformation for one movie: he played the active muscular boxer and then the same person old and fat.
December 13th, 2008 at 2:44 pm
tim curry
rocky horror picture show
wow, you missed a big one
December 16th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
okay, please tell me they were sarcastic about the elijah wood pic. and that gary oldman one.. not nearly good enough. they should have taken one from harry potter.
they also should have put john travolta in hairspray. not only did he become about 250 pounds overweight, he got a sex change! *gasp*
some of these are amazing but it could be a lot better
December 16th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
the elijah wood thing was trick photography to make him shorter. they filmed him farther away from the others and used a lot of child doubles. the ears and feet are fake as well. he was even wearing a wig.
might i mention that gerard butler is beautiful? *drools on computer*
December 16th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
the person who wrote this shouldn’t say stupid stuff like elijah wood got shorter. wow.
December 16th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
cutedemon-
May I redirect you to comment #5, #22, #54, #65, #81 etc?
December 16th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
79. Anthonymous : ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS! Michael Jackson is indeed one of the most amazing transformations ever… From a black man to a white lady!
And the posts about the bonuses are really starting to tick me off… Thank you for pointing out that Paltrow was wearing a fat suit and even better for telling me that Elijah Wood did not have surgery to reduce/regain his height. GASP! You mean the big feet and extra hair were NOT natural?!?
*sigh*
December 19th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
most of these guyz probably took steroids. and in lord of the rings they stuck on rubber feet which had to be ripped off and replaced evryday
December 28th, 2008 at 12:14 am
christian bale. gorgeous.
love the bonus ones. you should add eddie murphy.. in norbit
January 6th, 2009 at 11:00 am
What about Felicity Huffman in TransAmerica?
January 17th, 2009 at 7:41 pm
Do a list of people who never change: Keanu Reeves, Ben Stiller, Harrison Ford, Jack Black, etc.
And Raging Bull should have been number one. Also, Stellan Skarsgård does a terrific role in the Swedish movie Den Enfaldige Mördaren.
February 12th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
Usually when I look at the lists the main item I am thinking about is there this is one of the few that missed
de niro raging bull has to be here.
jfrater you must not have seen that performance
kudos to # 4 didnt even realize it was the same person
February 14th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
haha.Am i the only one who preferred the phantom(Gerard Butler)to the guy who played Raoul in Phantom of the Opera?(2004)He was a hot phantom, ami right?:P
March 3rd, 2009 at 10:31 am
Hmm full figured Renee Zellweger,
April 27th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
people have mentions these but:
robert de niro is raging bull. its not so much of a physical transformantion in the beginning as a whole different energy and a way of moving and being, and then of course, he gained so much weight for the end.
and the up-and-coming emile hirsch in last years Into the Wild. I would also put him on here.
May 13th, 2009 at 6:34 am
I know no one will probably agree with me… but Jeff Goldblum buffed up for MR. Frost and either had hair extensions or let his hair grow out. I love no matter what he’s in and how he looks.. yum.
Now if MR. Frost would just come out on DVD, I would be a happy camper.
May 13th, 2009 at 7:08 am
Jeff Goldblum was good in Independence day with WIll Smith, Randy Quaid. Good actor that he is.
July 17th, 2009 at 10:08 am
skimmed through the comments. LOL at the people who took the bonuses seriously. elijah wood should have given that away for sure.
July 26th, 2009 at 8:49 am
Edward Norton and Gerard Butler are awesome _o_
July 28th, 2009 at 6:40 am
Edward Norton, Gerard Butler, and Robert De Niro are my favorite actors!!
August 3rd, 2009 at 6:39 am
wow jared leto is a hottie=D
August 28th, 2009 at 1:04 pm
Vincent D’Onofrio also played a psycho in the movie The CELL with Jennifer Lopez… If you think he changed his appearance for Full Metal Jacket… it’s because you haven’t seen The CELL.. google it and see for yourself
August 31st, 2009 at 6:19 pm
I agree that Renee Zellweger looks fantastic compared to her normal skinny weight. Most women in hollywood are far too thin nowadays.
you should have had the film Face/Off Starring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage on this list.
Both men underwent so much of a transformation that they looked exactly like the other guy, in fact I am not sure why they just didn’t switch roles after the surgery scene and pretend to be the other. I guess they are method actors
October 2nd, 2009 at 3:55 am
I’m on the celebrity transformations list.What about Daniel Radcliffe? A geeky nerd on the Harry Potter films and from Harry potter 5 he was a teen and got some muscle and more British-English like voice.
October 8th, 2009 at 10:29 pm
It is my personal opinion that Jared Leto’s transformation for Chapter 27 should be much higher on the list.
October 13th, 2009 at 5:29 am
It seems you were attempting to be sarcastic with the two bonuses. Tip for the future: it just makes you sound like an idiot.
October 25th, 2009 at 5:04 am
U should but Robert De Niro transformation list U got taxi driver,raging bull,Frankenstein,Cape Fear to name a few
for the next list U should but BlackDynamite and If U don`t know him he is going to kick ass in 16.10.2009
October 27th, 2009 at 9:23 am
Bonus Entries= Sarcasm… Duh
November 4th, 2009 at 6:36 am
Elijah Wood -from Lord of the Rings- has the prettiest eyes!
