Actor John Hurt has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

The British actor, 75, said he was "more than optimistic" about his future.

"I have always been open about the way in which I conduct my life and in that spirit I would like to make a statement," he said in a release to Press Assocation.

He continued: "I have recently been diagnosed with early stage pancreatic cancer. I am undergoing treatment and am more than optimistic about a satisfactory outcome, as indeed is the medical team."

"I am continuing to focus on my professional commitments and will shortly be recording Jeffrey Bernard Is Unwell (one of life's small ironies!) for BBC Radio 4."

If it's early stage then they should be able to operate. Hope everything goes well.

Yeah, coming straight off the back of Christopher Lee's death, too.

Hurt's another one of those guys who's been in everything. Best wishes to him.

Everyone loves John Hurt.
