Part 2 of 2

Earning his second Oscar for the 1988 film Rain Man, he then went onto collect six Golden Globes and one Primetime Emmy.

‘Detected early’

In 2013, the man – who’s very active in his career – fell quiet. Only a few months after Hoffman’s directorial debut of the British comedy Quartet (2012), and shortly after wrapping production of Chef (2014), where he co-starred alongside Jon Favreau and Sofia Vergara, his representative let the world know why the beloved was in hiding.

Revealing little information, publicist Jodi Gottlieb told People (through ABC News) the star was successfully treated for cancer, which he had kept private.

“It was detected early, and he has been surgically cured,” Gottlieb said. “Dustin is feeling great and is in good health.”

According to reports, the Tony Award nominee, who at the time was 75, would continue preventative treatments to minimize the chance of recurrence in the future. Though Gottlieb did not elaborate on what type of cancer, it’s been suggested he had throat cancer.

‘Looked years younger than 86’

Serving as a reminder of resilience, the Meet the Fockers didn’t slow down after the devastating news was shared more than one decade ago.

Since, he’s loaned his voice to Master Shifu in two more installments of the Kung Fu Panda franchise (2008 to 2024), and co-starred in several other films, including Sam and Kate in 2022 and the 2024 sci-fi drama Megalopolis, which features an ensemble cast.

In early March, 2024, Hello! reports that Hoffman and his wife Lisa Gottsegen – whom he married in 1980 – were spotted strolling through London together, sharing some sweet public displays of affection.

Hoffman married Gottsegen added four children to his brood of two that he started with his ex-wife Anne Byrne.

The outlet writes, “The Hollywood legend looked years younger than 86 as he smiled and waved at the cameras. He was tanned and carefree as he strolled through the city and ducked into boutiques with his wife of 43 years.“

Though Hoffman has never spoken publicly about his battle with cancer, it appears he’s doing very well.
