He Fought For a “Chance”
In 2017, Suplee auditioned for the Hulu original series, “Chance,” but producers thought he was too small for the role. So, his agent convinced the casting directors that he was right for the role. “So we convinced them that I was heavier again, and I went in, and that was that. I was heavy enough.” Luckily for Suplee and his health, the weight gain was only temporary.
