Deflate The Face

January 23, 2017 Blind Gossip

[Lainey Gossip] There’s all kinds of work to be done before starting on a movie. In addition to preparing for the role, many roles require the actor to get into shape physically. Your first assumption here is to think that means working out. Most of the time. Some of the time it’s about your face. And this is not just the women.

Before starting on his upcoming blockbuster, producers were concerned after test shots that he looked too unnatural and puffy. They asked him, rather directly, to have his fillers dissolved. It’s an action movie after all, he can’t be looking dewy and plump like he’s at the spa while he’s doing all those action sequences. In order to speed up the process he first switched over to a detox diet to lean out and then he went back to the doctor to deflate his face. In my opinion he’s really better off for it. So, just in case you didn’t already know, in Hollywood, the actors are doing it and OVER doing it just as much as the actresses.

    I assumed Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt right off the bat but now that I’m seeing Ben Affleck guesses I could definitely see that

    Tommy Cruise
    The “in my opinion” sounds like a reference to his heated interview with Matt Lauer over the use of pharmaceuticals.

  3. nylahou says

    I think this is Brad Pitt. Only because his face looked less plump and he looked slimmer at the Globes.

    Looks like the move is either World War Z or War Machine.

  4. ohboyohboy says

    January 24, 2017 at 7:37 am

    Tom Cruise

    Clue : Block buster (though he’s over rated) and saw some pictures of him last year and his cheeks had plumped right out and thought it looked strange.

  5. tangoNcash says

    January 24, 2017 at 12:07 am

    Definitely B-rad Pitt
    Looks a whole lot better in my humble…

    Tom Cruise has been looking very puffy in all his recent films – Jack Reacher and The Mummy. Clear he’s had work done, and even though it’s fairly decent he looks pretty puffy for a normal guy.

  7. gertiewertie says

    January 23, 2017 at 7:49 pm

    Brad Pitt

  8. Laughing1 says

    Tom Cruise for the next Mummy movie coming out in June. You can tell by looking at his face in the movie trailer.

  9. luvprue1 says

    January 23, 2017 at 4:32 pm

    I don’t think this is Ben. He looks like he might need one. This either Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, or Johnny Depp. All three of them have had work done.

  10. SPY626 says

    January 23, 2017 at 3:52 pm

    Johnny Depp. He looked different at the awards show this year. I he is tightening up.

  12. SilentStar says

    My guess is Ben Affleck. Like Brad Pitt, he looked weird and obviously puffy for a long time after he started getting work done. I’ll take scruffy naturally aged sexiness any day over this plastic puffery.

    Most obvious plastic surgery is of course Mickey Rourke, but I think Tom Cruise is a close second.

  13. artistsnow says

    January 23, 2017 at 2:44 pm

    Tom Cruise has the plumpest most awful face.
    If he deflated, it could be for The Mummy or for American Made.

    I think he is the one with the most obvious plastic surgery.

  14. sherdinana says

    He looks much better without it.

    Most obvious surgery; Brad Pitt

  22. Conchord says

    January 23, 2017 at 1:27 pm

    I’m guessing this is Ben Affleck (for whatever the next Batman is called) since he’s had his face worked on before, and “deflate” could be a clue referring to how he went off about Tom Brady’s “Deflategate” controversy.

  23. gossipking says

    January 23, 2017 at 1:16 pm

    Brad Pitt

  24. SleuthingForFun says

    January 23, 2017 at 1:08 pm

    Brad Pitt, he looked much better and natural at the last awards but I’m not sure what action film he’s hired for so could be wrong, maybe Tom Cruise, I think they both had fillers over the past year.

    Optional: not sure but can’t wait to see the guesses.

    Johnny Depp
    Brad Pitt

  29. amagod121 says

    January 23, 2017 at 12:39 pm

    Brad Pitt? Maybe his newly lean face is due to detoxing and getting fillers taken out more than grief doing the trick? I kind of think it’s from grief, though.

    Otherwise, my guess would be Tom Cruise. He looks too pampered these days. If he has another action movie to shoot, maybe his directors agreed with me and told him to lose the woodchuck look.

    The Mummy

  35. sfgirl42 says

    January 23, 2017 at 12:06 pm

    I am going to assume this is Tom Cruise, because of his overly-puffy face of late and the fact that it is an “action” movie, the only type he does these days.

    • sfgirl42 says

      January 23, 2017 at 12:09 pm

    Male actor with the most obvious plastic surgery? Toss-up between Mickey Rourke, Ray Liotta, Tom Cruise and Burt Reynolds……worst ever was Carrot Top.

    Tom Cruise. I wondered about Brad Pitt initially since his face is less paunchy, but that’s likely more stress-related weight loss. Plus, I don’t think Brad has done an action movie for a while.

  45. rockstar says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:36 am

    I’m going with Tommy Girl for this one. He looked a little fluffy recently.

  46. shelaur22 says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:33 am

    Ben Affleck. The Batman. It’s sad how he’s lost his looks in such a short period of time.

    • shelaur22 says

      January 23, 2017 at 1:35 pm

      I’d like to change my answer to Tom Cruise and The Mummy. I think Ben’s weird, still-puffy face is about 75% alcohol and 25% fillers and Botox.

  47. MikeInSanJose says

    Tom Cruise — he was looking like the Pillsbury dough boy for a while. Definitely better off without the fillers.

    January 23, 2017 at 11:19 am

    Oh we know it!! It’s hilarious too.

    Dont want to guess this one bc it’s probably some boring comic turn movie thing, and Im so tired of those, i wouldnt even illegally download they’re so boring and over.

  54. totallytopanga says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:17 am

    Since the only upcoming action movie (that makes sense in this scenario) is guardians of the galaxy – I’d say it’s chris pratt.

  55. bbcgirl says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:14 am

    Must be Ben Affleck. He clearly had fillers for Live by Night – I am guessing to hide years of hard partying and to look the age the character was supposed to be (20’s-30’s, I believe). I prefer rugged Ben with some scruff anyway.

  56. stolidog says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:14 am

    John Cussack….”Better off for it” = “Better off Dead” “at the spa” = “hot tub time machine”

    Tom Cruise looks pretty obviously inflated much of the time

    • hvp5ss says

      January 24, 2017 at 5:11 am

      John Cusack is a great answer! Good catch on the clues.
      He’s been looking VERY awkward and plastic the last couple years. Seems like he’s been trying to retain his youthful look. He needs to let it go, he can’t be Lloyd Dobbler forever.

      He is currently filming (or about to film) a thriller called MISFORTUNE.

    • NativeAtlantaGirl says

      January 24, 2017 at 11:57 am

      Lloyd Dobbler ?

    World War Z, but isn’t this already in the can?

  58. SouthJerseyGirl says

    January 23, 2017 at 11:10 am

    Has to be Tom Cruise. His fillers are very noticeable. Is there a new Mission Impossible movie in the works?

    Tom Cruise.. shooting the next MI.

    Charlie Hunnam – King Arthur
    or
    Hugh Jackman – Logan

    Actor: Tom Cruise

    Male actor with the most obvious plastic surgery? Burt Reynolds. He was so handsome. It would have been nice to see him age naturally. I think he would have remained very handsome.

    Brad Pitt World War Z sequel.

    There are tons of actors with obvious work done. Two stand-outs, Mickey Rourke and Rupert Everett

  65. EdenBxl says

    January 23, 2017 at 10:56 am

    This must be about Ben Affleck, no?

    Male actor with the most obvious plastic surgery? Mickey Rourke unfortunately

    Tom Cruise for M:I 6 Mission Impossible. Deflate for nod to Tom Brady, both named Tom
