Actor Elliot Page radiated trans joy as he showed off his ripped body after a boxing session with coach Nolan Hanson.

The 39-year-old shared a photo and two videos from the sparring session, admitting in the caption that he is “hooked” on boxing.

He wrote: “I’ve been incredibly fortunate to train with Nolan. He’s a brilliant teacher, not just in the way he breaks down complex movements, but also in his strategic understanding of boxing and his thoughtful approach to the psychological side of the sport.

“Training with Nolan has become an essential part of my life.”

Page went on: “If you’re in NYC and looking, I can’t recommend him highly enough. Just be warned, you may end up getting as hooked as I am.”

The actor, rumoured to be playing Sinon in upcoming flick The Odyssey, was inundated with thirsty comments.

One person joked: “Went from Juno to Zeus.” Another said: “I gotta unfreeze my gym account. EP, you are ripped.” A third commented: “Those abs go crazy.” Someone else added: “Such a handsome guy.” And another wrote: “Abs on abs on abs!”

Elliot Page in The Odyssey

Elliot Page was cast in Christopher Nolan’s adaptation of the ancient Greek epic Odyssey.

Initial rumours suggested Page would be playing mythological figure Achilles, famed for his invulnerability and, of course, his weak heel.

Right-wingers were left up in arms over the casting, with news anchor Rob Finnerty appearing to believe Achilles was a real person. He was furious that a transgender actor could be playing the role.

However, it is now reported that Page will be playing Sinon. Also a figure from Greek mythology, Sinon was a traitor in the Trojan War, encouraging the Trojans to take the infamous horse into the city walls.

The movie also stars Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Robert Pattinson as Antinous, Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy and Clytemnesrta, Zendaya as Athena, Charlize Theron as Calypso and many more as part of a stacked cast.

It is due for release in July.
