In a recent interview, Tom Hanks' son Chet Hanks bravely confessed to a history of cocaine addiction so severe that even hardcore drug users couldn't keep up with him. The 33-year-old actor opened up about his struggles with cocaine on Bradley Martyn's "Raw Talk" podcast, describing himself as a "f--king cokehead" who used to chase the drug like Tony Montana from "Scarface." Chet recalled going to clubs and doing coke with fellow addicts, despite warnings to slow down. Eventually, his parents sent him to a wilderness program to address his addiction. Now in recovery, Chet acknowledges the destructive toll cocaine took on his health and well-being. With a past that includes selling and using crack, Chet's story serves as a powerful reminder of the dangers of substance abuse.
