Bryce Dallas Howard revealed that those responsible for the “Jurassic World” trilogy had problems with his body and weight.
“How do I say it … [I’ve] I’ve been asked not to use my natural body in movies, “the actress, who played Claire Dearing in the film, told Metro in an article published Thursday.
The actress, who has performed her stunts in films, added that director Colin Trevorrow defended her.
“And with the third movie, actually, it was because there were so many women in the cast that Colin felt very important in protecting me … because the conversation repeated, ‘We need to ask Bryce to lose weight.'”

She continued: “She said, ‘There are many different types of women on this planet and there are many different types of women in our film,’ and I had to do so many stunts that wouldn’t have been possible if I had. ‘ I was on a diet. “
The 44-year-old “Help” star noted that she is “thrilled” to be able to do stunts with “maximum strength” with her body and hopes this will lead other directors to focus less on women’s weight and more on their abilities. .
Howard stars in the star-studded film alongside DeWanda Wise, Chris Pratt, Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern and Sam Neill.

Wise, who was also in the interview, agreed with her co-star and talked about the pressure she felt to change her body while playing Kayla Watts in the sci-fi movie.
“There’s always something,” Wise, 38, told the outlet. “There was a lot of opposition to Kayla having muscles, what it means to be a woman, to look like a woman. She’s just every page, she’s relentless and impossible.
Though the actresses say “more women than men” starred in the film, Howard says it’s still “uncommon” to see sets with that kind of diversity.

The actress-turned-director previously alluded to the pressure she went through to lose weight for her role in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom five years ago.
“I’m training a lot for this because I gained 35lbs for Black Mirror,” she told Us in 2017. “So I’m just preparing to be a little more athletic.”
Howard had put on weight for the iconic Netflix series to play a woman struggling with an eating disorder.
