The actor attended the Rome Film Festival in October to support his film, Hey Joe. The actor spoke to Variety about moving on from his shady past. "I mean, it is what it is. I’ve honestly moved past it. It was dealt with, and I got to change. So that’s it, it’s over. I mean, I’ve worked in the U.S. too. So I’m just trying to move on," he told the outlet.
