From a Regency rake to a paladin! Regé-Jean Page has moved on from his Bridgerton tenure with a starring role in the star-studded Dungeons & Dragons adaptation — and he’s pretty proud of his film physique.
“Lots of push-ups, lots of sit-ups,” the Gray Man star, 34, teased of his training process during a Thursday, July 21, film panel at San Diego Comic-Con, per Entertainment Weekly. “I got to swing a sword around for a living. Do you know what I mean? That is everything that you’d want growing up. And coming into this, I got really, really good with the swords.”
He added: “It was lots and lots of stunts training, so my thighs were killing me and I had the best ass of my life.”
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, set for a March 2023 release, finds inspiration from the role-playing board game (RPG) in which a group of individuals team up for a heist that gets out of control.

“It was just the best time you could possibly imagine on this job. I spent time training and slaying dragons,” the England native quipped on Thursday.
Page portrays Xenk, a paladin, in Honor Among Thieves. (Per an official D&D description, paladins swear to uphold justice and righteousness.) Page even joked during the Hall H panel that he was “D&D adjacent” and a fan of characters Chrono Trigger and Diablo.
“I basically grew up as Eddie Munson,” the actor said, according to Variety, referring to Joseph Quinn’s outcast character in season 4 of Stranger Things, who’s similarly a fan of the RPG. “I know a little something about escapist fantasy that gives you no limits.”
