Tatum recently took to Instagram to share a carousel of three shirtless photos of him at varying weights, revealing the different ways he’s changed his body for his films.
“1st photo is today 205. 2nd photo 235 for a movie called Josephine. Then went to 3rd photo which is 172 for a movie Roofman,” Tatum wrote alongside the two mirror selfies, as well as a photo of Tatum’s reflection in a window.

In the first photo, Tatum’s bulging muscles were on display, while in the second photo the additional 30 pounds showed less definition on his physique. The third picture, another 30-pound difference from his current toned musculature but in the other direction, showed his collarbone popping out and a gaunt jawline compared to the other photos.
“I’m so grateful for my genetics. Grateful for my chef/nutritionist/witch. Grateful for my trainer. I couldn’t make these big swings in my weight without you guys,” Tatum wrote before making a bold statement about his future roles. “But i won’t be doing anymore fat roles haha,” Tatum said, explaining that it is too difficult to lose the weight and that it’s too “hard on the body.”
“But damn when i look at these pics it’s just wild what the human body and will can do,” the Foxcatcher star concluded.
