Fil-Am 'Spider-Man' actor Jacob Batalon posts transformation photo: 'People can stop telling me to lose weight now'

Remember Ned Leeds, Peter Parker's best friend from the "Spider-Man" movie series? 

We remember Ned, who was portrayed by Filipino-American actor Jacob Batalon, as super cute and chubby, his weight definitely adding to his charm.

So it was quite a surprise to see Jacob has lost so much weight! The Fil-Am actor posted a mirror selfie photo on the occasion of 24th birthday, baring his significant weight loss. Despite his corduroy coat covering most of his form, it's easy to see he's become pretty lean.   

"Don’t try to get at me..imma be vibin all day cheee," he wrote.

"By the way, while I appreciate the concern, people can stop telling me to lose weight now????????‍?? #kobeyear," he added.

While we thought he was pretty damn cute with his weight back then, we certainly have no issues with his  current weight now, too.

Last September 2019, Jacob visited the Philippines and had the chance to greet his Filipino fans and talk about his Hollywood life through the Kapuso ArtisTambayan. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
