Anjelica Huston Reveals She Was Diagnosed With Cancer 6 Years Ago, Now ‘In the Clear’

Anjelica Huston opened up about her journey after being diagnosed with cancer six years ago, and shared, “I managed to survive it, and I’m proud of myself.” When speaking about her experience with People , the actress said her “bout with cancer” began after the release of the film John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum in 2019, which she featured in. Huston kept the type of cancer private, while emphasizing the gravity of learning about the diagnoses.

“It came as a big shock, but it made me conscious of what I shouldn’t do, of places I shouldn’t go,” she said. “One of those places was taking life too seriously. So now when the opportunity arises, I laugh, and I try not to make a big deal out of things.



” Huston said that she is now “in the clear” and continues to do regular scans. “I’m at the four-year mark, and that means so much to me,” she shared. “It’s a fantastic thing.

I’m very proud of myself, and I’ve been very lucky. My doctors have been wonderful.” To celebrate being cancer, Huston “just walked in my garden and smelled the roses and thought how clever I was.

” She added that while some may not want to discuss their battle with cancer for the “obvious reasons,” there’s still “a lot to be said for talking about it and getting it out there and celebrating the fact that one’s come through.” “Life is tenuous and wonderful,” Huston continued. “It also gives you the idea that the world is big and you can somehow match up to it.

” Huston recently wrapped filming for BritBox’s limited series Agatha Christie’s Towards Zero , in which she stars as Lady Tressilian. The first episode is slated for release on April 16..
