        Russell Crowe in Robin Hood
        Robin Hood was well known for his way with a bow and arrow, and for his signature role in 2010's feature of the same name, Russell Crowe spent four months learning archery, mastering it to the point of being able to hit a target from 45 m away. In addition to this, he went through a vigorous exercise routine to lose the weight he had previously put on for 2008's Body of Lies. (credit: CP Images)

        Sylvester Stallone people. Come on. How do we put Hillary Swank on the list and not SLY??

        Biggest transformation from Rocky 1, to 2 and then to 3 and so on.

        deniro
        inspector mike
        I think Deniro has it . See him in Raging Bull from one extreme to another. Then as Al Capone , then in Cape fear. Wow
        He can look so different from one flick to the next
