What kind of diets do movie stars go on to get into exceptional shape and build muscle mass for movies (like Jason Statham went on for Death Race). I know one of the major meals Jason went on was sliced turkey and raw veggies. Any other suggestions? I want to be in amazing shape within 5 months, I'm hiring a personal trainer, and the diet is a very important part of this. Also any dietary supplements (consumable pills and powders, DO NOT RECOMMEND STEROIDS PLEASE! I'm only interested in doing this the legitimate and legal way) you would recommend?

There is nothing special about any type of diet. The most successful ones, however, emphasize higher protein intakes (I'd recommend at least a gram of protein per pound of lean body mass) and appropriate caloric intakes for goals (lower for fat loss, higher for muscle gain).
