The US actor Josh Brolin renounced alcohol eight years ago. He celebrates the anniversary on Instagram.

Josh Brolin (53) has had addiction problems again and again in the past. For eight years now, the US actor has not picked up the bottle and is dry. This milestone is celebrated by Brolin, who last played in the sci-fi epic “Dune” and was seen as Thanos in several Marvel films, with around three million followers on Instagram.

“To be dry means to finally love, without every thought revolving around how it only affects you,” writes Brolin about a picture in which he seems to be screaming towards the camera. Rather, it means “being able to love and indulge in the joy” that love brings to someone else.

In the longer contribution, the actor lists how his life changed after he renounced alcohol. When he gets into his car early in the morning, there is a card from his wife Kathryn Boyd (34) and a collage of his children. His wife told him on the card how grateful she was that he had decided to stop drinking “and live instead”. The 53-year-old has been married to her since 2016 and they have two young daughters together. Brolin also has two grown children from his first marriage to actress Alice Adair.

Congratulations from Anthony Hopkins

Brolin closes his contribution with thanks to God, his family and friends. With the hashtag #deeplygrateful he also declares that he is “deeply grateful”. Numerous colleagues and fans of the actor also report in the comments to congratulate Brolin. “Congratulations! We love you,” writes legendary actor Anthony Hopkins (83). And Orlando Bloom (44) and Justin Timberlake (40), among others, commented on the post.
