He also alluded to the fact that there was no “pizza” on the plate for the entire duration of shooting for the film.
The Twilight star added that he had to work out a lot, and that the routine got easier with time. “Training’s a lot more fun when you kind of get good at it. Once you pass over the kind of six-week mark, then it’s all right… Then you feel bad if you’re not doing it. It’s kind of what everyone says,” he said.

The actor joked and said, “No matter how many times you realise, ‘If I just maintain it, it’s going to be great and I don’t have to experience the bad part again’, as soon as the job’s done, you’re like, ‘No, I’m not going to train once.’”
Kravitz plays Catwoman in the film, and she explained that she has never had to train this hard before. “It was insane”.
The Big Little Lies star said, “Three months of training beforehand and then you have to keep it up, so you literally just film and train. That’s the only thing that we did.”
