Orlando Bloom dishes on ‘strict’ regime for ‘The Cut’ weight loss journey: 'I though I was gonna die’

Orlando Bloom revealed his fiancée Katy Perry’s reaction to his performance in the newly released movie The Cut.

On Friday, September 6, the 47-year-old actor candidly opened up about the Woman’s World songstress’ reaction, saying she was "just freaked out."

"She watched it and was like, 'I need a stiff drink,'" he told the outlet a day after the movie’s Toronto International Film Festival premiere.

According to the Pirates of the Caribbean actor, Perry, 39, broke into tears upon seeing the drama premiere.

"She was really moved. She knew what it took." At one point during filming and coming home to his family, he recalled, "I literally thought I was gonna die” due to his strict diet regime for the role"

Bloom stars in the new film as an unnamed boxer who must drop significant weight to compete. Reflecting on his drastic weight loss journey, he quipped, saying, "I was very hangry."

"The last three weeks in London, before we started filming, were just tuna and cucumber," he explained. A nutritionist working on the movie "had me [Bloom] on a strict regime to tear me down so that we started the film at my lightest weight. And then I put on weight as we filmed."
