Actor Elliott Page says he has an impressive six pack.

The Golden Globe winner plays gay US soldier Ben Hargrave in film 12 Strong, which is due to be released in December.

Page, 31, often posts pictures of himself on Instagram and Twitter, and he showed off his dancer’s physique on Saturday.

The Slumdog Millionaire star said it was thanks to bodybuilding and he has already put on two to three pounds.

He told The Hollywood Reporter that he was undergoing what he calls “burnt body awareness training”.

He added: “I’m also a lawyer, so the subject matter of 12 Strong, which is about the 12th US Special Forces Delta Force unit, the way this story unfolds, this support of [soldiers, who] you are identifying, is very very important.”

Page, who was recently voted No 1 on GQ’s 100 Sexiest Men in the World list, told the Daily Mail the only way to get a six pack is through bodybuilding.

The actor said he works out three hours a day and his diet includes beef, chicken, eggs, cheese and oily fish such as salmon and tuna.

“No sugar, no gluten, no dairy,” he said.

Page was previously tipped to become the next James Bond when Daniel Craig made his final appearance in the 007 series in November 2015.
