Yes, it is.

I ran across a mention that a new photo of a really buff Jake -- a huge contrast to his skinny "Nightcrawler" look -- had been posted.
"Oooh," I thought, clicking on the link, "that sounds good."
But this isn't exactly what I had in mind. A little too buff, for my taste.

I saw that picture, too. Not too buff for me, though his Prince of Persia buff was more to my taste.
I wouldn't have recognized him at first without the caption. Then I thought, "Holy cow!" :o
Then I thought, OK, I hope he doesn't make a habit of dropping all that weight and muscle for one movie and then packing even more of it back on, in probably a fairly short time, for another movie. I know Christian Bale has done it, but, seriously, I can't believe it's good for the body to swing between such extremes.

Not good for the body, perhaps, but good for the acting cred. Actors who physically transform themselves -- Matthew McConaughey in The Dallas Buyers Club, Robert DeNiro in Raging Bull, Christian Bale in The Machinist (skinny) and American Hustle (fat), Charlize Theron in Monster, and so on -- earn respect and sometimes Oscars.

Some of those muscles and bulging veins are fake, I bet.
