Michael Douglas: One Helluva Ride

Michael Douglas finally gives the full and uncensored account of a remarkable life that has spanned an extraordinary eight decades. A boy lost in the shadow of his father’s legacy. A gifted artist dismissed as just a ‘TV actor’. A first-time film producer who stunned the world by winning an Oscar at 31. A maverick who changed Hollywood and became a global movie star. Michael Douglas shares incredible behind-the-scenes stories featuring a who’s who of Hollywood, many of them never revealed before and some outrageously funny, with an unflinching honesty about his sometimes bad-boy life. Here, for the first time live on stage with a special guest host, he recounts the unfiltered story of his turbulent first marriage; infidelity and affairs with some of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood; his own serious struggle with alcohol, drugs and rehab; the heartbreaking fight to save his son from an addiction that sent him to prison for years; and his against-all-odds battle with stage four cancer. Father, son, husband, actor, producer, brother and friend. This is the real, raw, deeply honest and vulnerable Michael Douglas you didn’t know – until now.
