McConaughey's startling look for new role

Yah that's legit, but he'll just do some steroids to get back to normal after.

He is starting to film in New Orleans and can't enjoy the cuisine....bummer

Is he playing an old surfer?





But seriously, what role is this?

He is playing some dude who has AIDS but smuggled drugs in from Mexico to stay alive.

The Dallas Buyers Club.

Loosely based on the true-life tale of Ron Woodroof, a drug taking, women loving, homophobic man who, in 1986 was diagnosed with full blown HIV/AIDS and given thirty days to live. He started taking the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved AZT, the only legal drug available in the U.S, which brought him to the brink of death. To survive, he smuggled non-toxic, anti-viral medications from all over the world, but yet still illegal in the U.S. Other AIDS patients sought out his medications forgoing hospitals, doctors and AZT. With the help of his Doctor, Eve Saks and a fellow patient, Rayon, Ron unintentionally created the Dallas Buyers Club, the first of dozens which would form around the country, providing its paying members with these alternative treatments. The clubs, growing in numbers and clientele, were brought to the attention of the FDA and pharmaceutical companies which waged an all out war on Ron. "DBC" follows Ron Woodroof's personal fight to survive which lasted 2191 days when he died on September 12, 1992, six years after he was diagnosed with the HIV virus.

Looks like he's been wearing one of these.

Easy transformation for him. He just got off the juice and stopped dying his hair and tanning.

he looks like a giraffe.

I want to know what someone said to him in that dies pic. He looks like he's about to murder whoever is behind him.

He didn't lose that much weight. He basically lost about 30 lbs and stopped working out, so he lost muscle mass.

He lost a lot of weight and muscle mass. I'll give him props for apparently being dedicated.
