“I started as a comedy writer in this business so no exercise at all,” Odenkirk says. “I knew that this was going to be something that was going to be really challenging for me personally.”

“Bob took the challenge wholeheartedly,” producer David Leitch (Hobbes & Shaw) said.

The video then goes into detail about how Odenkirk devoted himself to his training regimen to buff up for the role, impressing even his trainer and fight coordinator Daniel Bernhardt (seen in this video lavishing praise on the Nobody star as he boxed for Men’s Health). And Odenkirk deserves all the praise he gets, absolutely transforming for the film, and looking happier for it. And we all just want Bob Odenkirk to be happy.

Here’s the official synopsis for Nobody, directed by Ilya Naishuller (Hardcore Henry) from a script by Derek Kolstad, the narrative architect of the John Wick franchise:

Universal will release Nobody on March 26, 2021.
