The veteran actor and film producer, who turns 80 on 22 July, was diagnosed in 2022, months after receiving an honorary Oscar in recognition of his decades-long global activism for justice and human rights. Speaking to the Today show's Lester Holt on Wednesday, Glover discussed living with the condition. "I can live with it in a sense," he said. "I'm sure as it advances, different things will be different and changing." However, the Lethal Weapon star emphasised that, despite the progression of the neurological disease, he remains committed to engaging with younger generations on social justice issues.
