Mark Wahlberg reveals how he gained 30 pounds for his role in ‘Father Stu’

Mark Wahlberg reveals that his recent filming experience was not an easy one.

While Wahlberg finds himself starring in Father Stu, a film in which he seems to be giving a remarkable performance, the actor reveals how he gained 30 pounds for the title role.

“I had six weeks to gain about 30 pounds. I started with 7,000 calories for the first two weeks and then 11,000 calories for the last four weeks. None of that was fun (…) and at my age that’s not something that’s good for your health (…) I was eating a dozen eggs and a dozen pieces of bacon, two baked potatoes, a big steak, two bowls of white rice and a glass of olive oil (…) and then, sodium to be as swollen as possible (…)”, Mark Wahlberg says in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

Father Stu is available exclusively in theaters beginning this Easter weekend.
