Russell Crowe steps out looking noticeably thinner
Russell Crowe has surprised with his unexpected appearance at the Mediterrane Film Festival, where he debuted a noticeably thinner appearance. The Australian actor, 61, was presented with the Malta Film Legend honour at the event's Golden Bee Awards, where he made an emotional speech about filming Gladiator in the European country more than two decades ago. Joined by his fiancee Britney Theriot, Crowe, who has been laying low in recent months, showed off his weight loss in an all-black suit. Speaking onstage while accepting his award, Crowe said he 'became a man in Malta' during the making of Ridley Scott's Gladiator, which earned the Aussie an Academy Award for Best Actor in 2000. 'For whatever films I had done before then, nothing had the majesty, ambition and budget and ultimately reach of Gladiator. It wasn't an easy production. I had to fight every day for the integrity of the character I was playing — just like the journey of the character himself in the movie,' Crowe began. He went on to tell a story about a memorable fan encounter he had a week prior in Italy, which spoke to the legacy of the film. 'I shook his [the fan's] hand and he started to cry. His friends told me later he's the head lifeguard of the local beach, he's got muscles on muscles, and they'd never seen him like that. I ended up hugging him,' Crowe said. 'When he got himself together, he said, 'You don't understand, when I was 8 years old, my mother sat me in front of a TV and put on a video cassette of Gladiator and told me, 'If you are ever wondering what type of man your mother expects you to be, it's this type of man.' 'The honour, the integrity, the faith – a man made in Malta.' The actor is as busy as ever right now, with a flurry of productions set for release over the next year. They include the drama movie Nuremberg co-starring fellow Oscar winner Rami Malek, in which Crowe plays real-life figure Hermann Göring – the right-hand man to Adolf Hitler. Meanwhile, the upcoming action thriller Bear Country, which was shot in Australia earlier this year, is currently in post-production. Crowe is also in pre-production for several films, including The Weight, Highlander, American Son and Unabomb.
