Here’s Why The Internet Is Going Crazy Over Kumail Nanjiani’s Marvel Makeover

Comedian Kumail Nanjiani may be best known for his role on Silicon Valley as a techy nerd but that’s soon about to change. His upcoming role in Marvel’s Eternals spells out a change in how audiences will recognize him — and not just because of the Marvel effect. Kumail’s own efforts into preparing for the role have definitely made a big change.

And it was seen in the “thirsty shirtless” selfie he recently posted on Instagram.

Kumail posted a couple of photos displaying his transformation for his role on Eternals. He said that while he never thought he would be the type to post pictures like this, he’s ” worked way too hard for way too long.” After, he explained the immense work and effort put into attaining this body which could not have been done without “the best trainers and nutritionists paid for by the biggest studio in the world.”

The post basically broke the internet. Not only were we ~ordinary people~ blown away by the makeover, but celebrities and fitness figures alike were also stunned. Brooklyn Nine Nine’s Terry Crews added “DAMN!!!!!! Proud of you!” next to quite several fire emojis.

Guardians of the Galaxy’s Dave Bautista, and former professional wrestler, rained praise by saying “Holy good god! I’d say mission accomplished. ? way to get after it brother!”

Actor and former WWE wrestler The Rock wrote “Extremely hard work. Dense muscle is hard to achieve. Looking great my brother!!”

And there were many more where that came from. What do you think of this makeover?
