JK Simmons Is Getting Ripped for His New Movie
Williamson, who has trained Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, turned Josh Brolin into a killing machine for Old Boy and got Zac Efron Marine-fit for The Lucky One.
Simmons, who won an Oscar for his role in 2014’s Whiplash, is now filming Zack Snyder’s superhero flick Justice League. The Oscar-winning character actor is apparently getting totally ripped for Justice League, giving us a Commissioner Gordon unlike any we’ve seen before.
According to Williamson, Simmons trains two to three times a week at various Gold’s Gym locations around Los Angeles.
The fitness trainer working with JK Simmons has responded after photos of the actor in the gym went viral online.
The weightlifter has starred in movies such as Whiplash (2014), Juno (2007) and Spider-Man (2002), but he has many upcoming roles in the making.
J.K. Simmons won an Oscar past year for his big mouth in “Whiplash,” but it’s his big guns that are wrecking everybody’s panties these days. “So much respect for this guy”, Williamson wrote on Instagram, using the hashtags #JKSimmons and #OldManCranking.
“I’m just planning on learning as much as I can about him through the comics and getting my feet wet in the first movie, and then hopefully continuing on from there”, he revealed.
The Justice League films will unite Batman with the other DC heroes including Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Aquaman (Jason Momoa).
We don’t know what Snyder has in store for him in Justice League, but it seems as if he’s preparing for real battle.
