(CNN) � Paul Rudd did not enjoy the diet he had to adhere to in order to into Ant-Man.
Calling it “horrible� and “restrictive,� Rudd said for “The Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania� was a real bummer.
Rudd was a guest on the comedy food “Off Menu,� where he said that his nutrition plan to get into Marvel shape was so intense he would have sparking water as a treat.
“When I was having to train for the ‘Ant-Man� movie, and I was on a very restrictive diet, my reward was sparkling water,� he said. “That’s how horrible that diet was. I was like, ‘Alright, I can have some sparkling water now, I’ve earned it.’�
“It wasn’t flavoured, I wasn’t gonna go crazy,� he added.
Rudd said he grew accustomed to training for all the films he’s appeared in as Ant-Man.
“Once you’re in it, it’s not too hard,� he said.
But no matter what, Rudd said the other Marvel stars always looked better than him.
“I worked out harder than anyone, I would eat better than everyone, and I looked worse than all of them,� Rudd quipped. “I had to work out all the time, eat perfectly, just to look kind of bad. Not even great.�
Rudd is slated to appear in “Ant-Man in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty,� currently in pre-production.
