Nicholas Galitzine Says He-Man Bulk-Up Was His Toughest Challenge Yet

He reports body dysmorphia after training while filming another movie.

Overview

  • In a new PEOPLE interview, the actor calls the bulking regimen “the hardest thing I’ve ever done” and a daily challenge.
  • He says the rapid change triggered body dysmorphia, with clothes no longer fitting and even a “definite dent” in his bed.
  • He trained daily while also shooting 100 Nights of Hero and says the size is not something he plans to maintain year-round.
  • Galitzine previously posted a first-look photo on Instagram and wrote that Masters of the Universe had wrapped production.
  • The film’s cast includes Jared Leto, Sam C. Wilson, Kojo Attah, Hafthor Bjornsson, and Camila Mendes, with a theatrical release slated for June 5, 2026.
