Kellan Lutz stars in the upcoming live action movie The Legend of Hercules, and during an interview recently he decided to prove that his training for the role had paid off.

In the clip below, the interviewer asks Lutz what kind of training he did to prepare to become the iconic character.

The interviewer for Clevver was noticeably shaken up – and impressed.

The Legend of Hercules hits theaters this Friday, January 10.
