53-year-old Sacha has completely overhauled his look ahead of his role in an upcoming Marvel movie.
In the new images, he can be seen with an incredibly defined chest and torso as well as bulging biceps.
Sacha has been hitting the gym as part of his body overhaul to play Mephisto, the next supervillain in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The actor enlisted the help of Hollywood trainer to the stars, Alfonso Moretti, best known for helping stars transform their looks in record time – especially for movie deadlines.
More on Sacha Baron Cohen
Opening up to Men’s Fitness, Sacha said: ‘I called Matthew [McConaughey, actor] and asked for help.
“After asking who I was and how I’d gotten his number, he finally gave me Alfonso’s contact.”
Detailing his rigid fitness plan, the actor continued: “25-minute workouts that were sustainable. Even while filming, the workouts happened.
“In the past, I would’ve thought you needed hour-long sessions’.
“But the short sessions made it so much easier to stay consistent – even with the demands of being on set.”
Some of his exercises included 100 push-ups a day alongside his regular but short workouts.
Speaking of Sacha’s determination to overhaul his body, Alfonso added: “He could be filming for 15 hours, start at 6am, finish at nine at night and he’d still send me a text: ‘Do you have time for a workout?’.”
Sacha first found fame for his character, Ali G, in the 90s.
He went on to portray roles such as Borat and Bruno in the 2000s.
Men’s Fitness UK is on sale this Friday.
