Because of Odysseus, he's back on his weight from high school and he's lost 30 pounds.

The article discusses Matt Damon's physical transformation for his role as Odysseus in Christopher Nolan's film.

The preparation included a specific training regimen focusing on both upper and lower body strength, cardio, and recovery. Stump described the process as highly specialized, aiming to portray Odysseus as a strong yet lean warrior, consistent with historical depictions.
