Hugh Jackman had to go on a strict diet to get into shape for his role in Deadpool and Wolverine.

On The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the 55-year-old actor revealed how he got his body into shape for his role as Wolverine. Jackman admitted he consumed a whopping 6,000 calories a day to get into proper superhero shape.

Due to last year's Hollywood strikes, Jackman had to stick to this diet much longer than expected to stay in shape throughout production.
