The MCU is known for taking liberties, but the referenced character is 6'2" 278lbs and yoked. People will try to defend this casting because Namor's not a household name, but they might as well have casted Huerta as Hercules. It wouldn't be much less ridiculous. And it has nothing to do with the Meso tweak, I actually think that's cool.

Maybe they figure no one gives a damn about his workout and resulting gains since he's not a household name (yet)? Honestly I think he looks cool, I like the Aztec spin on him and the Atlanteans, he may be taller in the movie (if they can do it for Tom Cruise, they can do it for anyone!), and I don't mind the fact that he's not shredded to hell. A person who spends most of their life underwater is gonna have leaner swimming muscles, and the lack of definition could just be fat over muscle, especially if those Atlantic waters are chilly!
