Another day, another actor decides to starve himself in hopes of winning an Oscar. After piling on 20 pounds of muscle to reprise his role as Thor, Chris' next project involves playing a starving, dying sailor in “Heart Of The Sea,” which is about the events that inspired Herman Melville to write Moby Dick.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Chris told Jimmy that he’s trying to get skinny by only filling his stomach with up to 600 calories a day, which includes just a couple of small salads, a few drops of protein a day fasts while fasting for about 15 hours:
JK: You’re on some crazy diet now, I heard, because of this movie you’re shooting.
Thor: Yeah, we’re shooting, it’s the true event inspired Herman Melville to write Moby Dick. A bunch of sailors in a whaling ship get struck by a whale, the ship sinks and they jump onto the small rafts and drift for 90 days. And basically they begin to die and eat each other. It’s a romantic comedy. Uh, and we have to get rather skinny. So we’re on 500 or 600 calories a day. I’ve had a cheat meal a couple minutes ago.
JK: What did you have?
Thor: A bit of pizza?
JK: How many slices of pizza?
Thor: Like ten.
That's insane. Here's hoping that Chris survives that crash diet, because we doubt he'll be lifting any over-sized hammers anytime soon.
