20 Incredible Facts You Didn't Know About 2021's Biggest Movies
10. Kumail Nanjiani Gave Up Carbs & Sugar For A Year To Get Into Shape - Eternals
Kumail Nanjiani proved to be the frequent show stealer in Eternals, playing wise-cracking superhero Kingo.
But Nanjiani didn't merely rest on his witty laurels, undergoing an extensive - and honestly, shocking - physical transformation into a ripped, chiselled pillar of a (super)man.
Beyond putting in hours at the gym with the best personal trainers money can buy, the actor also quit refined sugars and switched to a low-carb diet for around a year.
The results are impressive, though in a bout of tragic irony Kingo isn't shirtless for a single scene in the damn movie. That's gotta be crushing, even if Nanjiani seemed to get into shape mostly for his own sake rather than because Marvel told him to.
