Bradley Cooper Says , Will Arnett Helped Him Get Sober.
CNN reports that in a recent interview, Bradley Cooper was candid about his past drug and alcohol abuse and revealed who helped him along the way.
Cooper said early in his career, fellow actor Will Arnett did a lot to help him recover.
In a recent conversation on the 'Smartless' podcast, Cooper spoke about sharing an apartment with Arnett.
Lacking confidence as a young actor, Cooper said he would attempt to mimic Arnett's brand of humor in social situations.
Will was like, ‘Hey man, do you remember we had dinner the other night?
How do you think that went?’ , Bradley Cooper, on 'Smartless' podcast, via CNN.
I remember being at the dinner thinking I was so funny, and I thought these two guys who were my heroes thought that I was so funny.
, Bradley Cooper, on 'Smartless' podcast, via CNN.
I was like ‘I thought it was great.
I thought I was killing.’ Will Arnett was like, ‘You were a real a--hole, man.'

Will took that risk of having that hard conversation with me... , Bradley Cooper, on 'Smartless' podcast, via CNN.
... that put me on a path of deciding to change my life.
It truly was Will Arnett.
He is the reason.
