Tom Hardy, another of the actors in Inception, just did the weight loss/weight gain thing in the last few years with Bronson and Stuart a Life Backwards. His trainer, Patrick Monroe, was key to achieving these physical transformations. He would do well to ask Tom about his experience, what worked, and maybe even make use of patrick. just sayin.

I was simply stating in my opinion, based on the photos of him I've seen since June, he appears trim,not overweight or flabby. Does he appear 'emaciated" ? No......So as I said I agree that if he truly has to look emaciated for some scenes, yes , he would have to lose weight It is simply a matter of different folks=different strokes.... Eternalist

Such matters/physical requirements for the role would have been discussed between DiCaprio and Nolan before filming ever began as they typically are between any actor and director :) Eternalist

However....for sure if Nolan 'truly' (??) does want him more muscled..... or as the article mentions 'emaciated' for some ending scenes ..he would have to lose weight. As per comments from others who have worked with DiCaprio...he is a consumate professional and he has always come to any film set ...be it Scorsese's or Nolans....completely prepared to work....for what the role/what the director desires from him Thus I don't believe he came to Nolan's set in a condition/ weight that was unacceptable What I contend is that if the info in the article is accurate ( emaciated in ending fight scenes ) then he was prior to filming following a regimen that would allow him to continue to lost weight while filming to be prepared to look emaciated Alex
