Paul Rudd On Working Out for 'Ant-Man and the Wasp': 'I Didn't Go Full Hemsworth'

Paul Rudd dished all about trying to get into shape now that he’s part of the Marvel family while making an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday night (June 27).

“It’s part of the thing, you have to somehow fit into the suit. The good thing about an ant is that they’re not Thor-sized, they’re Thorax-sized,” the 49-year-old Ant-Man and the Wasp star joked.

“You don’t want to feel like an imposter, you want to feel at least part of the gang,” Paul continued. “I didn’t have to go full [Chris] Hemsworth. I got to work out at least a little bit and eat well. It’s a bummer but you get into the groove of it.”

That same evening, Paul joined his co-star Michael Douglas at their Ant-Man and the Wasp premiere after party held at The Water Club Restaurant, where Alysia Reiner and Brandon Victor Dixon also showed their support.
