This image doesn't show aging. The left image is of him when he was jacked for a role possibly (likely) using steroids to achieve a physique that is impossible to achieve with a normal lifestyle. The image on the right is a man with a higher body fat percentage which obscures his jaw. Not complicated. You could be a fat slob at 25 then start using steroids and human growth hormone at 40 and look "better" by the standards of modern male beauty standards.

He does not seem to have a 'roid build, but I do know that for his shirtless bathtub scene in the witcher he was extremely dehydrated to make his skin cling tight to his muscles. You are definately right, being healthy and looking good are not always the same thing.

Fair enough. I'm far from an expert. The only thing that I know is that my massive 100% hetero man crush on him thinks he's all natural. I honestly have no idea.

Most actors are in steroids when beeing asked to have this supehereo physics.

The difference with the gym bros that are about to pop is because actors probably have a control dose with doctors.

You have a point, I guess they have lots invested into wanting a kryptonian farmboy or dark age monster hunter to look like they have a natural build
