VIDEO : Cannes: Colin Farrell on His Dad Bod, Gaining 40 Pounds by Drinking Melted Ice Cream

To soften up for his role as a lonely singleton in Cannes competition entry The Lobster, Colin Farrell went all in on pizza, cheese­burgers and Haagen-Dazs. He told The Hollywood Reporter, "I would put [the ice cream] in the microwave to melt and drink it," adding: "Two cheeseburgers, fries and Coca-Colas, and two slices of chocolate cake at 10 a.m. is not that fun ? and I love cheese­burgers."
The 40-plus-pound weight gain over eight weeks changed the actor more than just physically.
at the film's premiere May 15, when he saw himself onscreen without his shirt, "I gasped. I'd forgotten what it looked like." In fact it looked, in the current ubiquitous parlance, like a dad bod.??
