“17 years clean and sober this year, so anybody watching that doesn't think it's possible, it is,” says the actor (via toofab)
The Biggest Shocks and Surprises of Comic-Con 2019
His first big break was a role in Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" back in 2008, where he played one of The Joker's most memorable followers. "Each time something like that would happen ... I'd be like, 'Okay, David, that was it. You've maxed out. You've hit the jackpot,'" he recalled thinking, "and then, shit, another thing will happen."Dastmalchian said that he knows "life has been very good" to him, something he credits to sobriety and a solid support system.
"That he would call me and say I want you to be Piter De Vries, a very important character in that universe, it was earth shattering," said the actor. "I'm a nerd and at any given moment, my wife has to be careful, because I feel like sometimes I might explode."Up next for David? Oh, nothing big, just a "Suicide Squad" film, his comic launch and, most likely, more movies in the ever-expanding MCU.
Okay, so he was clearly joking there and those Phase Four plans are still very much happening, but David is excited to see where Kurt and the Ant-Man crew will go next. At the moment, there are no announced plans for another sequel, which likely wouldn't hit until Phase Five. In October, Dastmalchian will release his first comic book, "Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter," about a superhero whose cover story is an Elvira-type horror movie hostess.
