The 54-year-old is all set to play the role of a fitness enthusiast in the sci-fi thriller movie, Divinity. Sharing the details about his character with Generation Iron, the seven-times Fitness Model of the Year stated, “I guess how social media kind of portrays me as this alien because I’m still strong for 45 years. I’m still healthy for 45 years”. He continued, “this character is I guess a portion of me in a sense because he is becoming this incredible meta-human.”
O’Hearn is playing the role of Embattled actor, Stephen Dorff’s brother in Divinity. He expressed his elation for his forthcoming venture and conceded, “It’s a great movie, it was a great project to work with”. More so, the film has already bagged a treasure trove of reviews from the critiques and an earmark of ‘cult classic’ in the Sundance film festival.
Now, it’s been over four decades since O’Hearn is making waves in the fitness industry. He follows a disciplined workout regime, lifts weights, and often leaves his fans to ponder over his stringent stature. Nevertheless, the 54-year-old once shared his valuable counsel with his fans and opened up about his approach and mindset that keeps him going in his 50s.
