Wendell Pierce has slimmed down since his days on the beloved series The Wire.
Pierce, 62, is best known for his role as Bunk Moreland on the iconic crime series, which ran from 2002 to 2008 on HBO. But Pierce has done endless memorable roles in addition to playing Moreland, such as films like Waiting to Exhale and Ray and other TV series like Treme, Chicago PD, and Jack Ryan. Now starring on Elsbeth, the star hit the red carpet premiere of They Fight in New Orleans at the Orpheum Theater this weekend and showed the world that he’s looking healthier than ever. Revealing a slimmer physique, it’s safe to say Pierce has his health and fitness regimen in check.

What Is Wendell Pierce’s Workout Like?
Last year, Pierce told WebMD that while he has to travel a lot for work, he turns to group sports when he’s home in New Orleans. Pierce told the publication he loves to seek out a pickup basketball game or a partner for tennis. If he doesn’t have a workout buddy, he makes sure to stay regimented about stretching.
“When it comes to aging, I find the stretching of my muscles and joints to be one of the most important habits I have,” Pierce said. “I’m more consistent with that than anything.”
What Is Wendell Pierce’s Nutrition Plan Like?
Pierce knows his family’s health history isn’t ideal. His father was largely sedentary. That’s why he’s so focused on eating healthy these days. Pierce sticks to fresh fish and vegetables and makes sure to avoid eating out all the time.
“The act of cooking helps me eat better—and eat less,” Pierce continued. “It’s a classic move. The chef is satisfied by the time the meal is prepared and others are eating. I taste as I cook, and I serve the meal satisfied.”
