Pics of Ben Foster working out for X3

[Specter313]

As I mentioned before, here's the pics of him getting in shape for his role for Angel in X3 on VH1's "The Fabulous Life of... Fabulous 40 for 2006". Oddly enough, the crappy quality is due to me having to do exactly what Lightning said, in that I had to take these with a camera phone. Also, the trainer he's training with, Harley Pasternak, is the same one that Halle Berry uses.

Nice! did they say anything about the movie during the show? thanks for the pictures, Foster was a perfect choice for the role of Angel, thanks again!

 

[newwaveboy87]

he looks hot...wierd...

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

Specs...I love you man. Thanks so much for getting these for us. If it's okay with you, I'd like to add them to my "Archangel" gallery.

He looks great. And if he is sporting that "cupid" hairstyling in X3 I will be very, very, happy. Looks like a pretty boy-type Warren to me....

No, just that he was doing this training to buff of for his part in X3. Didn't even mention the Angel character by name.

it's amazing how a lil' bit of muscle made him go from geeky to hottie....i can't think of him in the same way ever again...

Good, then you can pay the phone bill for having to send all these. And I don't mind if you use them.

I agree. He really is starting to look the part quite nicely.

Oh, well that sucks. At least X3 is getting some early promotion though.

His physique has really improved... and, um, his forhead certainly looks average

He looks good!

Yep...

I told you guys it work out in the end. Makeup, styling and physique training can transform a person from this...

...to this....

This makes me feel so much more confident in this casting choice--I always knew he'd be the best choice as far as acting prowess, but I was wondering how they'd tailer him to capture the characters physical look. Looks like prayers have been answered.

 

[newwaveboy87]

i never doubted he could play the role, and i was ALWAYS rooting for him. i'm a big fan of him as an actor - he can transform himself into any character...but now...he's hot to boot...it's just odd...

He looks COMPLETELY different. wow. I'll admit I was a little scepticle when i heard Foster was cast for the part, but now im even more excited for this. oh and lightning, your new storm avatar rocks!

I always knew that he would pull it off...I mean, after seeing many of the transformations that previous actors (in general) have made in the past for roles, this was going to be no surprise to me..

[KenK]

Ben Foster's the shiznit! Anyone who's seen Hostage knows what I'm talking about. Two words. . .Molotov cocktails!

 

[Slim_X]

Wow! He doesn't look like an elf! Now he has my approval to play Angel

 

[sebaa]

[newwaveboy87]
