Jeff Goldblum humbly opens up about his Jurassic Park costar, Sam Neill, and his recently-publicized diagnosis of stage 3 blood cancer.
Jurassic Park star Jeff Goldblum has addressed his costar Sam Neill's diagnosis of stage 3 blood cancer. Goldblum portrayed mathematician Dr. Ian Macolm in the first Jurassic Park film opposite Neill's paleontologist Dr. Alan Grant. He returned to his role as Ian in The Lost World: Jurassic Park and in Jurassic World: Dominion, the latter of which saw him reunite with Neill in the franchise for the first time since Spielberg's original film.
Speaking with Evening Standard, Goldblum opened up about Neill's diagnosis of stage 3 blood cancer, which the Jurassic Park actor revealed in his recent autobiography. He quietly spoke about Neill's remission, hopeful that the actor would recover soon. Read what Goldblum had to say below: SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY “He shared it with us early on. He’s been in constant touch with me and, well, he looks fantastic, he sounds great. Hopefully, he’s as healthy as a horse now. I just adore him."How Jeff Goldblum & Sam Neill's Jurassic Park Roles Defined Them Having starred in Jurassic Park in 1993, Goldblum and Neill have continued to be friends since taking their roles in the dinosaur franchise.
Goldblum and Neill are also the only actors whose Jurassic Park characters visited Isla Sorna on the big screen. Ian Malcolm went to Site B in The Lost World: Jurassic Park to document the dinosaurs, while Alan Grant visited the island in Jurassic Park III after being hired to find a lost boy.

The talented actor is already filming a new project as well, having reassured his fans in an Instagram post earlier this week that he is doing well.
