Emmy Rossum Put On 10 Pounds of Muscle, Took Creatine, and Downed Protein Shakes Before Bed to Play an FBI Agent in Hulu’s ‘Furious’

Emmy Rossum committed to a serious physical transformation to play FBI agent Alice Black in Hulu’s “Furious,” building 10 pounds of muscle over the course of her preparation.

To fuel that work, she added creatine and drank protein shakes before bed. By the end she could toss her 45-pound kid in the air without straining.
