The Broadway actor explains how he channeled Gaston in the gym to bulk up for his role as 'Beauty and the Beast's' resident himbo.
— is one TV viewers may not know yet: Joshua Henry as Gaston, the hunky himbo in pursuit of Belle . With his powerful baritenor voice and a striking facial resemblance to the late Sidney Poitier, Henry steals the show by performing with lengthy locs, subtle prosthetics and, as Gaston himself says, “biceps to spare.”
Hours before a Broadway performance of “Into the Woods,” Henry spoke with The Times about getting heavier — and hairier — to play the beloved character, releasing a new single and where he hopes his new physique might lead next.We surveyed The Times TV team to come up with a list of the 75 best TV shows you can watch on Hulu.
I didn’t measure my biceps beforehand, but I have to think that we’re at least two inches bigger, which was great because that works for Gaston. But our costume designer Marina [Toybina] got a little ticked off — I mean, stuff fit me, but when also doing the choreography, I split my pants two times, right up where the sun don’t shine. So we had to adjust the costume to accommodate the movement.
And the chest hair, well, let’s call it the chest ‘fro, or the chest Chia Pet. We went through different gradations; the first one was way too much, you would have thought it was like Don Cornelius on my chest, like you could get your hand lost in it. So we had to find a good balance.
