The actor recently talked about his recovery, telling ET he is “probably doing 90 percent of all the things I needed to be doing.”
“I think another six months will be hopefully running [more]…,” he said. “I got to set goals for myself. I’ll do whatever I can… whatever it takes to get better, to get stronger.”
He continued, “It’s a one-way street, this recovery. The rest of my life is about health and wellness. Recovery will be part of the rest of my life, so I look forward to it, man. There’s always something to do to get better, be stronger, be happier, be healthier, and that’s what I look forward to.”
