He doesn't take his sobriety and blessings for granted.

"Looking back, I think, 'Oh my God, I could have been done. I could have been so fried and so bad off and, oh my God, such a cautionary tale,'" he told Playboy in October. "And I still could be."

"My age and my recent set of experiences ... have left me feeling I'm in the zone," said the actor. "This is just the sweet spot of my career and my life so far, and strangely, they've come at the same time."
