A Star Succeeds with Addiction Therapy
Ok, so I caught a late night showing of Inception last night and it was awesome! Alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and the lovely Joseph Gordon-Levitt, I noticed a newcomer, Tom Hardy. The British born actor played Eames aka the Forger. It was interesting as I looked up his background and other film credits. As a teen, Tom got into a lot of trouble and eventually began to dabble in drugs and other destructive behaviors. Addiction therapy was sure to be in his future as the aspiring actor could not handle a busy career while abusing drugs.
Committing to Alcoholism Treatment
After receiving praise and award nominations for his acting, Tom couldn’t cope with his personal life and experienced a breakdown due to us drug and alcohol use. With Black Hawk Down and Band of Brothers to his credit, it’s sure to say that this talent would be wasted if Tom could not overcome his addiction. Eventually with the help of his family, Tom was committed to drug and alcoholism treatment. This gave him a new outlook on life and acting.
Living Sober and Working Hard
Since his stint in rehab, Tom has gotten a steady amount of work and exposure, especially with the release of Inception. Tom is even set to play the role of Max in the new Mad Max movie that is set to be released in 2012. Tom has been living sober since 2003 and has overcome his crack and alcohol addiction. Congrats!
