Brendan Fraser wore 136 kg fat suit filled with dried beans, marbles for 'The Whale'

Actor Brendan Fraser reveals that he was forced to wear a 136 kg fat suit filled with dried beans and marbles after he failed to put on ‘enough weight’ for ‘The Whale’.
Fraser says he was forced to wear a 300 lb fat suit filled with dried beans and marbles after failing to pile on “enough weight” for The Whale, reports mirror.co.uk.
The actor, 54, needed some extra help to transform into a 272 kg obese man for the new thriller flick by director Darren Aronofsky.
Speaking of the suit, Brendan said: “There was a five-point harness that had me strapped in. Once into it, I was in there all day until it came off.
“The costume pieces themselves contained combinations of those little airsoft pellets, maybe dried beans, marbles. But the rule was that the whole look should obey the laws of physics and gravity, because we don’t see that in films.
