This Sept. 22, 2018, file photo shows cast member Jeff Bridges arriving at the Los Angeles premiere of"Bad Times at the El Royale" at TCL Chinese Theatre. The 70-year-old actor channeled his The Dude character from "The Big Lebowski" in a statement on social media about the diagnosis Monday evening.

He said he understands the disease is serious. He expressed gratitude to his family, friends and medical team and promised to keep fans posted on his recovery. Bridges is a seven-time Oscar nominee known for his roles in "Starman," "True Grit," "The Last Picture Show" and many other films.
