Sacha Baron Cohen calls his body transformation a ‘mid-life crisis'
The 53-year-old actor debuted his new physique on the cover of Men's Fitness UK, prompting speculation about its authenticity.
Cohen confirmed his transformation was real, attributing it to a combination of Ozempic, private chefs, and personal trainers, jokingly calling it his 'mid-life crisis.'
He sought advice from Matthew McConaughey, who recommended his trainer Alfonso Moretti, who initially described Cohen's body as 'like a ruler'.
Cohen portrayed Mephisto in the season finale of Ironheart, and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed he will reprise the role in future MCU projects.

Adrian Dunbar: ‘I'm really excited about the new Line of Duty'
Adrian Dunbar, 66, grew up in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland. He is best known for playing Superintendent Ted Hastings in the BBC police drama Line of Duty and was nominated for a Bafta for the role in 2018. The last episode of the final season in 2021 was watched by 12.8 million viewers. He featured in the film Emily and the musical Kiss Me, Kate and now stars in police drama Ridley. He lives with his wife in London. Working in an abattoir was a very good grounding in how difficult it is to earn £20. I still love a bacon sandwich. It gives you a perspective on life that you don't forget. I've taken a lot of pleasure in watching Kneecap rinsing the system. [Kneecap are a controversial Irish rap group who made comments about the Israel-Palestine conflict at Glastonbury and Coachella.] They're an amazing act and they've caught the zeitgeist. But they're good people and conscientious people. I'm going to go and see them with my daughter, just to see what the craic is.

I was a sceptic until a psychic connected me to my dead husband. Here's what he told me about the afterlife and how to spot the signs your loved one is trying to contact you
It's been more than ten years since I last spoke to Alex, my late partner and the father of my two children. But now I'm hoping to reconnect to him from beyond the grave. I know how mad that sounds. How Victorian and 'woo-woo'. Yet as I pick up the phone to book my in-person 60-minute spirit reading, I am full of hope.
