And Goodman told People magazine about his change of lifestyle:

 “I know it sounds sappy, but it was a waste. It takes a lot of creative energy to sit on your ass and figure out what you’re going to eat next. I wanted to live life better. I’m breaking a sweat but I’m not going nuts.” he said.

Goodman admitted that his weight was affecting his acting career:

“I had a 30-year run, and at the end I didn’t care about anything. I was just fed up with myself. I didn’t even want to be an actor anymore.”

A much trimmer looking Goodman next stars in Kong: Skull Island, out on 10th March.
