That was weight he intentionally gained for a role though
I dread the day I’ll stop smoking
Fwiw, I lost about 4 kg of my average weight (That was about 7% of my body weight) when I stopped smoking. A couple of years down the road I also quit drinking which also decreased my average weight by another 4 kg.
(With average weight I take into consideration that I have natural, not dieting related fluctuations of about +/- 1 to 2 kg. The fluctuations are still there but the mean they deviate from is vastly different.)
Maybe I should add that I am still eating about five pounds of sugar a day and I haven’t done sports since 2012, so don’t assume that quitting smoking meant a healthier lifestyle (sadly).
Well I’m a heavy weed smoker, so maybe there’s a difference. Also I already notice the withdrawal effect in the form of more appetite/eating a lot more when I don’t smoke for a couple of days. Given I also have really bad eating habits … I usually eat once a day but when I don’t smoke I will need breakfast and lunch too.
You might as well check your insulin levels, maybe it’s worse than your lungs
ok
Did Russell Crowe gain weight for a movie role, bc of health issues or because he discovered the all you can eat buffet on Carnival Cruises?
I don’t know any details of the picture. But gaining weight as you get older is completely normal for men and women. If you’re expecting to have a 25 year old physic at 50 you’re in for a lot of depression long before you reach 50.
Plus people like Crow worked out a lot. You don’t get movie star muscle without doing a lot of work, and probably some short cuts. When you stop doing that you gain weight that isn’t muscle.
Shit, even going from a semi active lifestyle to a 9-5 office job will add a belly if you’re not hitting the gym.
He looks normal for a guy his age, and for what he’s done for decades.

Only if you keep eating as you did before. People don’t change their diets as they get older. They seem unaware / not caring that the belly will come otherwise.
I think it’s partly just being OK with getting fat. If you are not attractive anymore anyway because of age, may as well enjoy whatever food you like. And if you are in a relationship, both partners are probably OK with looking not so great anymore as they age.
This honestly does not look normal where I live
