Congratulations to Michael C. Hall, a natural pick for his title role in Showtime's Dexter, which will commence making Season 5 this Wednesday, according to Hall.
When he won and had to appear onstage it was rather startling to see him looking like a cancer patient. When he released his 'official statement' last week he was not precise about several things including at what stage of treatment for the disease he is in. He looks a bit wan but otherwise pretty good!
Michael C. Hall won his first Golden Globe, for his role on "Dexter," but not surprisingly his recent revelation that he battling cancer was on people's minds.
Last week Hall revealed he has been fighting Hodgkin's lymphoma and plans to beat it, as he is in remission.
A hat pulled over his head, Hall thanked his wife in his speech as he teared up. In the press room afterward, reporters couldn't help but ask after his health.
E!'s Ted Casablanca asked first, and Hall said, "I had every intention of keeping it quiet, but because the award shows were imminent, I thought I'd make a statement."
Of his hat he said, "I wanted something that was pretty simple, but a maybe a little fancier than your normal thing."
Here's some other highlights from the press room:
- What made this season special: "Well John certainly turned the knob up to 11. He's such a phenomenal talent and has such an energy about him that affects everyone from the crew to the producers."
- On his current battle with cancer: "Well, it's a personal matter and to be completely frank, I had every intention of keeping it quiet. Because the award shows were imminent, I figured I would make a statement. It was also nice to make a statement at the point in my treatment that I did, where I was able to assure people that I am really on the road to recovery. And it's nice to have a justifiable excuse for accessorizing."
- On enjoying the night's excitement: "I like to think that I have a pretty good head on my shoulders and that I don't get too swept up, but I've never been less susceptible to getting swept up in a night like this considering the more down in the trenches kind of stuff I've been considering with the treatment. But, it's really been nice. It's really nice to see colleagues who know about it. Just to check in with them is really gratifying for me. I've very honored."
