“Evil Dead” star Bruce Campbell reveals that he has five years left to live after an incurable cancer diagnosis.
“I’m in a five-year prognosis,” he said. “With the type of cancer that I have, which I don’t want to get into, the current thing is a five-year deal.” When Carolla asked if that meant Campbell had five years to live, the actor replied “give or take.”
“It’s a fascinating thing that takes place because [cancer] messes with your head, too. I’ve decided though, pretty specifically, to live with it, not die from it,” he added. “You can go down a massive rabbit hole. The cancer rabbit hole is enormous. You can go into focus groups of 10,000 guys who have exactly what you have. I won’t touch it with a 10-foot pole.”
