FANS have been talking about John Goodman’s illness because the actor has struggled with depression and drinking.

Earlier this week, on June 20, 2022, the legendary actor John Goodman turned 70. Before his fame from roles in *The Flintstones*, *Blues Brothers*, and *The Big Lebowski*, Goodman faced serious personal struggles.

Goodman has been open about his battle with alcoholism, which lasted over 30 years and deeply impacted his life and career. In a 2012 interview, he confessed the drinking was “certainly” affecting his acting work, including his “temperament, memory, [and] depression.”
