Peter Jackson – 70lbs – Overhauled His Diet & Cut Out Junk & Sugar

Wanted To Focus More On His Health

Peter Jackson, the iconic filmmaker behind the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film series, currently looks like a different man. However, his transformation began many years ago. It all started in 2005, when Jackson was on set of his then-newest film King Kong. It was reported that he wanted to be more careful about his nutrition, so he didn’t eat anything from the catering truck. Instead, he brought with him food from home, and he mainly ate yogurt, muesli, and soup. Moreover, he started exercising a bit, and before he knew it, he had lost 70 lbs! Jackson’s latest directorial work was in the 2018 film, They Shall Not Grow Old.
