Alexander Skarsgard's Gaunt Look & Other Shocking Actor Transformations — GALLERY
True Blood actor Alexander Skarsgard isn't exactly looking his best these days. Gone is the chiseled, muscular specimen of a man we have all come to know (and pine over), and in his place we have a sad, skinny, greasy fellow. Luckily, Skarsgard's rapid weight loss — which has left him looking gaunt and sunken — is not due to sickness, but is rather all in the name of art. Skarsgard will play a father confined to a fallout shelter with his family following an apocalyptic outbreak in the upcoming film Hidden, which is slated for a 2013 release.
Recently, we've also seen Matthew McConaughey out and about looking scary skinny; once again, it's for a role. And these two gentlemen, of course, aren't the only actors to drastically alter their physical appearance for a film. Losing or gaining weight seems to signify an impending Oscar (just ask Natalie Portman or Charlize Theron — don't ask Tom Hanks, he's still bitter), so it's no surprise actors jump at the chance to show their dedication to a role in this way.
Launch our gallery of stars who have made massive physical changes to see which other actors went all in, sometimes at the expense of their health.

I hope nobody tries to top what Bale did. It was disturbing.
