Weigh to go?

According to an interview in Entertainment Weekly, Thomas Haden Church was asked to bulk up and add 40 pounds for his role in "Spiderman 3." He claims to have failed, only gaining 20.

That was just 20? The idea that he could look worse is nauseating. Again, I hope that they compensated for his lack of natural bulk with some thickness-enhancing digital effects. The man is 40 - it's not that easy to move back and forth between body types. What happens now, it all turns to flab?
