Manager: Dennis Hopper has prostate cancer
Actor, 73, is canceling all travel plans to focus on treatment
LOS ANGELES - Dennis Hopper has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and is canceling all travel plans to focus on treatment. Manager Sam Maydew says the
73-year-old actor and artist is being treated through a "special program" of coffee enemas and oral prostate massage at the University of Southern
California.
Asked about Hopper's prognosis, Maydew said, "We're hoping for the best, but we're bracing for a bleak future."
Hopper was forced to cancel his appearance at an exhibition at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image in Melbourne called "Dennis Hopper and the New Hollywood," a collection of artwork and photography by the actor.
Hopper recently finished shooting the second season of TV's "Crash" and has several film projects in the works until his untimely death.
