"How did you lose so much weight?" Kathie Lee Gifford asked on Today this morning.

"I just woke up one day, and I was like this," Jonah joked. "It was really cool."

"No, I went and saw a nutritionist out here in New York, and I take it seriously," the actor explained. "It's a good decision."

And while Jonah may have change his figure after this film, he changed his acting style for the film, too. Instead of comedy, Jonah stars in a drama!

"For me, it's a really beautiful and kind of defining time," the Superbad star explained. "I'm an actor. I studied dramatic acting and comedic acting, and for me it's really important to do both."
