Zack Sharf Digital News Director Dolph Lundgren revealed for the first time during an interview on “In Depth With Graham Bensinger” that he’s been privately battling cancer on and off for the last eight years.
Doctors first discovered and removed a cancerous tumor on the actor’s kidney in 2015. “Then I did scans every six months, then you do it every year and it was fine, you know, for five years,” Lundgren said. “In 2020, I was back in Sweden and had some kind of acid reflux or… I didn’t know what it was.
So I did an MRI and they found there were a few more tumors around the area.” Lundgren said six more tumors were discovered at the time, one of which had grown too large to remove so he had to start systemic therapy.
More tumors were discovered in the fall of 2021, when Lundgren arrived in London to film movie sequels to his “Aquaman” and “The Expendables” franchises. “We realized it was a lot worse than we thought,” Lundgren said. “[The doctor] kind of started talking about all these different tumors, like, in the lung and the stomach and the spine, outside the kidneys.
