John Goodman, 71, has lost 200 pounds and is no longer recognisable: view the comparison of

The 2023 Monte-Carlo Television Festival in Monaco saw the Coyote Ugly actor make his slimming debut.

Since the 1980s, John Goodman has appeared on our screens, but in his most recent performance, the 71-year-old, who becomes a year older on Tuesday, appears completely different from the person we remember.

John appeared at the Monte-Carlo Television Festival in Monaco looking nearly unrecognizably slimmer after losing 200 pounds, but he didn’t lose the weight quickly or with a fad diet; instead, it is said that it took him 16 years to lose the weight after starting his journey in 2007 at a weight of 400 pounds.
