"I apologize if that's a shock. It was to me too. The good news is, I'm not gonna go into any more detail. He explains that he's making the news public to explain his disappearance from conventions and appearances over the coming months, and then burst back onto the scene in time for the release of his new movie Ernie & Emma, written and directed by Campbell, in the fall."
"Bruce Campbell was childhood friends with director Sam Raimi, and together the pair made the 1981 cult horror movie Evil Dead during a summer vacation from college in 1979. Both then remade the cabin-in-the-woods gore-fest six years later, calling it Evil Dead II, before capping the trilogy with 1992's wonderfully ridiculous Harryhausen-inspired fantasy Army of Darkness."
Bruce Campbell, the 67-year-old actor famous for playing Ash Williams in the Evil Dead trilogy, publicly announced a cancer diagnosis that is treatable but not curable. He revealed the news via social media to explain his absence from convention appearances and fan events during the summer months while undergoing treatment. Campbell chose not to disclose additional details about his condition. He plans to resume his public presence in time for the fall release of his new film Ernie & Emma, which he wrote and directed. Campbell has maintained a long career connection to the Evil Dead franchise since its 1981 inception, reprising his role across multiple films, television series, and video games.
