‘Terminator’ star Nick Stahl Opens Up About Alcohol Addiction

GETTING TO KNOW YOU –

Nov. 4, 2021 – Stahl said he found solace from his inner demons in acting. “I was always playing moodier characters,” he said, “which was how I was feeling.” 

“I don’t look back on my childhood with real fond memories, but for some reason, when I did plays, that stuff shut off and I had this ability to just be very comfortable,” Stahl added. By age 11, Stahl was already being approached by Hollywood figures like Mel Gibson, who invited him to Los Angeles for a lunch meeting. It resulted in Stahl landing a role in Gibson’s 1993 drama, “The Man Without a Face.” 

As a teenager, the fast-paced Hollywood scene enabled Stahl’s addiction: “They were always opening new spots in Hollywood: bars, hotels, clubs. They weren’t exactly checking my ID, and because I had done a couple movies, it was very easy access.”
