Hollywood actor Shia LaBeouf publicly acknowledges assistance from three fellow celebrities in his struggle to maintain sobriety.
Shia LaBeouf, the 'Fury' actor, has recently revealed some big names that aided him during his road to sobriety. In a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, he credits his survival to none other than Mel Gibson, Sean Penn, and Josh Brolin.
LaBeouf's friendship with Mel began in 2022, a couple of years after allegations of abuse surfaced. The Aussie star introduced him to Latin mass church services while they were working on a movie together. The pair have a close bond, with LaBeouf expressing, "Big respect, big love. He's always been very lovely to me."
Mel isn't the only one making a difference – Sean Penn also stepped up to motivate and support LaBeouf. Recalling their encounters, he said, "There was a bunch of guys that I looked up to that just started popping up. I had never, ever felt that kind of love - not like that."
When quizzed if Sean could be a 'gateway to rehabilitation,' LaBeouf responded positively, expressing hopes for both his and Sean's friendship to pave the way for healing.
LaBeouf, aged 38, finds himself blessed with the opportunity to keep acting at his prime and considers it a miracle. His latest project, 'Henry Johnson,' a movie by writer-director David Mamet, releases in theaters on May 9.
Although James Franco isn't directly mentioned in LaBeouf's rehabilitation journey, the two have been colleagues who share a common ground in experimental performance and personal narratives. Other notable figures like Josh Brolin and Sean Penn have been associated with LaBeouf, sharing experiences of personal transformations and struggles, but specifics about their direct impacts on LaBeouf's recovery are scarce.
A documentary titled "Slauson Rec" may shed some light on LaBeouf's recent endeavors, focusing on power dynamics within the experimental theater collective he led. However, it does not delve into influential figures in his rehabilitation journey.
