10 Insane Actor Transformations Never Rewarded With An Oscar

7. Matthew Fox €“ Alex Cross (2011)

Matthew Fox Alex Cross Matthew Fox lost 44 pounds and transformed himself into the apparently very veiny serial killer Picasso for €œAlex Cross.€ He did this healthy, reportedly by eating a lot of protein and working out. Go figure. According to an Examiner interview, even Fox was shocked when he saw the still above. €œI never watch my films while we€™re making them, so when the images came out on the Internet, I was like €˜holy s**t.€™€ Of course, he never saw any award nominations, because this was a Tyler Perry movie based on a James Patterson book. Just sort on Rotten Tomatoes for €œtop critics€ and you get 0%. Ouch.
