Russell Crowe Gains Weight to 126kg for Nazi Official Role in 'Nuremberg'

Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe gained weight to 126kg to play Nazi official Hermann Goering in the film 'Nuremberg'. He refused AI-assisted dubbing, showcasing the balance between narcissism and cunning. According to the film company, Crowe visited various locations related to Goering in Germany before filming to better understand the character's soul. Despite three funding issues over 13 years of preparation, Crowe remained committed to the role. After filming began, he insisted on delivering his lines in German and German-accented English himself. He lost 26kg within a year after production concluded. Variety praised his performance as powerful and masterful. 'Nuremberg' will be released in Taiwan on June 5.
