“Cyborg” actor Ray Fisher is the latest character in the DC Universe to bulk up for his role.
The actor instagrammed a photo of himself looking jacked at the gym, captioning the photo, “Half-Man, Half-Machine… #BORGLIFE #JusticeLeague.”
The Cyborg had a brief cameo in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” and Fisher’s character will next be seen in “Justice League.” The character is half-man, half-machine, and his borg-like abilities include super strength and a genius-level intellect.
In August, TheWrap reported that Cyborg (aka Victor Stone) will appear 2018’s “The Flash” movie, starring Ezra Miller and which will be directed by Rick Famuyiwa. After that, Fisher is set to have a standalone “Cyborg” film.
Fisher isn’t the only actor buffing up for “Justice League.” In June, J.K. Simmons posted photos of himself training like a beast at the gym for his role as Commissioner Gordon.
Simmons has been working with celebrity trainer and former marine Aaron Williamson to get swoll for the role, with Williamson posting pictures of Simmons on his Instagram account that make him look like a pro bodybuilder at 61.
Zack Snyder is directing “Justice League,” which unites superheroes Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), The Flash (Miller) and Cyborg (Fisher).
“Justice League” will open in theaters on Nov. 17, 2017.
