Matthew McConaughey says he became a 'monk' as he prepared for the role of Ron Woodroof in Dallas Buyers Club.
McConaughey is back on the big screen next week in Dallas Buyers Club, a role which saw him lose fifty pounds to play AIDS sufferer Woodroof.
Speaking on the red carpet in London earlier this week, he revealed that he didn't socialise for five months as he prepared for the part:
Dallas Buyers Club sees McConaughey team up with director Jean-Marc Vallée and co-star Jared Leto for the first time.
However, it is the second time that he has starred alongside Jennifer Garner; the pair worked together on comedy Ghosts of Girlfriends Past.
McConaughey will be back on the big screen later this year as he will lead the cast in Christopher Nolan's Interstellar.
Dallas Buyers Club is released 7th February.
