10 Comedy Actors Who Became Ripped Action Stars

This next entry is slightly different to most of the others found on this list as Kevin Hart didn't find himself having to radically transform his body for the sake of a role in an action feature. Instead, the superstar comedian chose to dedicate himself to an intense fitness regimen from 2014 onwards after he started seeing the ones he cared about struggle with health issues.

Yet, this new-found focus on staying physically fit eventually opened the door to two exciting things for the star going forward; He became an inspiration to his many followers on Instagram, going for huge runs with his fans (with one jog even drawing 2,500 strong), and also found himself transferring that physical prowess onto the big screen in numerous explosive movies.

Whether he's going back-and-forth with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson in a jungle or taking bullets for Ice Cube in the field, Hart has grown into a bonafide comedy action star, equally equipped when it comes to physical and verbal takedowns.
