Goodman pushed himself, exercising six days a week and aiming to walk up to 12,000 steps daily. He also adopted a Mediterranean diet, focusing on fish, olive oil, vegetables, nuts, and fruits as his primary food choices.

John Goodman made his debut as a theater actor in the Broadway production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” in 1978. His film career began in 1983, and he notably appeared in movies such as “Sea of Love” alongside Al Pacino and “Arachnophobia” with Jeff Daniels. In 1991, he starred in the comedy “King Ralph,” and he also made memorable appearances in “The Big Lebowski,” “The Artist,” and “Argo.”
