Kiwi actor Sam Neill has spoken out about his “brutal” experience with chemotherapy after he was diagnosed with stage three blood cancer . Neill, 76, referenced his treatment on the first episode of ABC series The Assembly , where he appeared as an interviewee for a group of autistic journalism students, reports the Daily Mail . The series follows Australian interviewer Leigh Sales as he mentors the students in the art of interviewing, with other well-known people set to appear including Hamish Blake and Delta Goodrem.
“I’m on a different one [treatment] now, so at least I don’t look like somebody’s bald thumb,” Neill said on the show..
