“Love Lies Bleeding” star Katy O’Brian is used to being physically fit, but needing the body of a competitive bodybuilder living in the 1980s took things to a whole other level. And did she mention she only had two weeks to achieve it? “It seems as though I’ve done this to myself, where people expect me to be generally in shape for parts now, so I tend to stay at least at a two weeks’ notice,” O’Brian told TheWrap.

As Jackie, one half of a romantic pairing that goes south in director Rose Glass’ latest feature, O’Brian was enthusiastic to craft a fully fleshed out character who, at times, is literally larger than life.
