That redemption arc is mind-boggling for those of us who witnessed it from the start. He was such an asshole and a trainwreck. Seeing him go from that to a successful and likeable guy is just bananas. Good for him.
His father was up there with Robert Altman as an independent director.
He was in “Weird Science” as a bully when he was 19. Kept getting movie roles even when he was being arrested on a weekly basis. Turned his life around and got sober.
Be interesting to see if they can find an actor to play him.
I know he’s getting paid for that, but he seems a cool arse dude.

I can’t wait for his biopic.
