Ben Affleck Has Allegedly Gone Too Far With His 40-Pound Weight Loss In Months

Ben Affleck’s weight loss is being scrutinized by the tabloids. Friends of the actor are worried after learning that he lost 40 pounds in just a few months, according to Star.

A source claimed that Affleck has cut down on his carbs consumption, and he’s also been exercising a lot.

One of the reasons for the sudden weight is his upcoming return as Batman in the Justice League sequel.

Even though nothing has been confirmed yet, a Warner Media source tweeted a photo of Gotham from Affleck’s time as Batman. And this led fans to believe that he’s gearing up to reprise his role.

Life & Style published a similar story about Affleck this week. They said that the actor’s weight loss is concerning because he doesn’t look good.

In fact, the tabloid published a side by side photo of Affleck from the time when he was chunkier to right now that he’s much slimmer. They claimed that the photos were taken recently to prove that Affleck lost a considerable amount of weight in a short period of time.

However, Gossip Cop busted the tabloid by saying that a photo of a chunkier Affleck was taken in 2018. As such, it’s not surprising for the actor to have already lost a lot of weight because two years already passed.

It’s not as if Affleck irresponsibly lost his weight in just a few weeks or months as both tabloids claimed.

The rumor-debunking site also said that it’s possible for Affleck to be preparing for his role as Batman. But this doesn’t mean that Jennifer Garner’s ex-husband completely gave up carbs to prepare for the role.

During an interview with People earlier this year, Affleck revealed that he had to gain a lot of weight for his role in The Way Back.

His character was a wasted alcoholic so he wasn’t supposed to look good in the movie. Since Affleck was sober while filming The Way Back, he had to indulge in junk foods, pizzas, and bread to prepare for the role.

Gossip Cop said that the actor must have finally shed off all this weight recently. But there’s nothing to worry about because it’s not unlikely for actors in Hollywood to prepare for their upcoming movies by exercising regularly and eating healthily.

The rumor-debunking site also talked about Affleck’s appearance in the video that he uploaded on Instagram last month. They said that the actor looks good in the clip.
