Gerard Johnson is the director of Muscle, a thriller focused on the obsession for muscles, gyms and body transformation. With his lead actor Cavan Clerkin they analyse with Angelo Acerbi the effects of this gym obsession and the reason behind it, that lead to the creation of the film.
Muscle: Simon is stuck in a rut. Consistently failing to meet targets at work, and clinging onto the tail end of a failing marriage, his only happiness is a cheeky pint down the boozer. Determined to make some changes, Simon takes the plunge and joins a no-frills bodybuilding gym. No sooner is he fumbling with the weightlifting equipment than hulking man-mountain Terry approaches with the offer of being his personal trainer. As Simon’s physical transformation begins, his gym buddy slowly infiltrates himself into all parts of his life, forcing Simon to question what Terry’s motivations really are.
