Actor Luke Evans: My body insecurities give me ‘terrible anxiety’

“I don’t want to be in that place. I know I shouldn’t feel like that, but you know, we are sensitive creatures, we’re very delicate.”

“As hard as I may look, I am quite delicate.”

He said that if he was not an actor, he would “probably let it all go.”

“Staying fit and in a certain physical fitness level now is definitely doing my job,” he said. “I wouldn’t care so much, but it is part of my job.”

“I get cast in certain roles that require a certain amount of physical strength and aesthetic. It’s been good because it’s probably kept me on the straight and narrow.”

He most recently starred in the action flick Weekend in Taipei, which was directed by George Huang, who co-wrote it with Luc Besson.
