Tenoch’s physical adaptation to embody Namor
In the same interview, Tenoch Huerta spoke of the physical work he underwent to be in shape for his performance and admitted that he did not want to cut his ration of tacos.
“In fact, it worries me. No, it’s a big deal, man, I don’t want to cut my taco ration from now on. But yeah, it’s fun. I don’t know. It’s something my coach told me: ‘Okay man, now you can rest, you can relax and take your time. But not too much, because if you have to play Namor one more time, you have to go through the same process again. So you better watch out and don’t go crazy on tacos.”.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is still available in theaters, in which you can enjoy Namor, the King of Atlantis in Marvel, also known as The Submarineer and with mutant powers.
