During a recent appearance on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” actor David Harbour revealed the secret behind his incredible physical transformation. Known for his extreme weight fluctuations, Harbour discussed his methods for getting in shape for various roles.
Harbour’s latest project, “Pitch Perfect Bumper in Berlin,” is currently streaming on Peacock. He plays the character Heidi, a perfectionist and secret singer-songwriter on a journey to gain confidence. As a surprise for Harbour, OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder wrote an original song for him to perform on the show. Harbour expressed both excitement and terror at the opportunity, as singing is a hidden talent of his that not many people are aware of.
The conversation then shifted to Harbour’s physical transformations over the years. Corden pulled up two photos of the actor, one where he appeared significantly heavier and another where he was noticeably slimmer. Harbour jokingly shared his secret technique for losing weight, which involved simply not eating. Despite the simplicity of the method, Harbour acknowledged that it was challenging and that it truly tested his willpower. He explained that for one role, he had to gain weight to portray Santa Claus, so he indulged in donuts and ice cream. However, for other projects, he focused on losing weight through diet and exercise.
As the interview continued, they discussed the topic of favorite activities to do with friends in total darkness. Harbour humorously mentioned lighting a fire and enjoying some drinks, while also contemplating his own present happiness.
Overall, Harbour’s appearance on “The Late Late Show with James Corden” provided insight into his physical transformations and showcased his musical talents. Fans can catch him in “Pitch Perfect Bumper in Berlin” on Peacock and look forward to more exciting projects from this talented actor.
