Mila Kunis – Black Swan
Black Swan is one of the highest-rated psychological thriller movies. This film helped lead actress Natalie Portman win an Oscar. And she’s not the only one who sacrificed herself to be in this movie. Actress Mila Kunis had to lose about 25 pounds for the role to look like a ballet dancer. She went on a stringent diet of 1200 calories a day and worked out hard until she dropped to 95 pounds. She later called the experience “horrible” as ever.
Charlize Theron – Monster
When the actress was cast as Aileen Wuornos, a convicted serial killer in real life, she completely transformed into a character in the true sense of the word. The actress does not want her transformation to be just “prosthetic limbs and fat suit.” She recalls, “I knew I had to transform my body to get her physical skin.” However, earning £30 for the role paid off, as she won an Academy Award.
