I think generally larger actors are cast into specific roles for larger characters. Especially in comedy. So you grow to associate that specific large actor with those types of characters and when you see that person on screen after losing that much weight, you think hey, something isn't right here. Jonah Hill is another good example. It's a type of typecasting. Even if it's a comedic actor still playing a comedic role

He definitely looks like a more healthy weight in the "after" picture, but the direct flash and baggy jacket aren't doing him any favors...

Keep in mind lots of actors do this for a living, they have personal trainers and meal dieticians who feed them and train them and make sure they stay in shape, get bigger/smaller to fit into the role they are playing.

Taylor Lautner gained over 30 lbs of muscle for his role for Twilight.



Edit: damnit now my work history has me browsing of pictures of taylor lautner.
