Actor Orlando Bloom opened up on his insane physical transformation as a boxer in the new film `The Cut`, reported People.

In the thriller, Bloom plays an ex-boxer who suffered a defeat that ended his career as a champion in the ring. Then, when he "trains for redemption," a synopsis teases, an "obsession takes hold and reality unravels -- and he may be spiralling into something far more terrifying."

Bloom was "excited by the challenge" of transforming himself for the role, as per People.
