SILENCE OF THE DRINKING –
June 11, 2023 – During his younger days in the industry, Sir Anthony Hopkins suffered from severe alcohol abuse, which goes back to his days as a theatre artist. But this addiction would reflect on his demeanor onset, as he wasn’t the easiest actor to work with at the time. And things went on a downfall in A Change of Seasons, as the Thor star didn’t back away from blasting his costar Shirley MacLaine, as he reportedly called her “the most obnoxious actress I have ever worked with.”
However, the feelings were mutual, as the Oscar-winning actress also wasn’t quite fond of Hopkins, but could understand why this was the case, as she stated, “I didn’t like him either, but he was on the wagon at that time and it was hard on him”. But it wouldn’t be long before The Silence of the Lambs star would finally address his issues and get his life back on track.
