Actor Bradley Cooper has recently opened up about his past struggles with drug and alcohol addiction.

Cooper, 48, appeared on a recent episode of National Geographic's Running Wild With Bear Grylls: The Challenge, and decided to open up about past challenges, saying he felt "very lucky" to have overcome them. .

Cooper told host Bear Grylls at one point during the episode that he felt like he didn't "get lost in fame", prompting Grylls, 49, to ask him: "But you've definitely had a wild few years?"

"In terms of alcohol and drugs, yes. But it's not about the fame, though," Cooper replied, adding: "But I was lucky. I got sober at 29 and I've been sober for 19 years, I've been very lucky."

Continuing their candid conversation, Grylls asked if Cooper's past struggles with addiction helped him with his role in A Star Is Born, in which he played an alcoholic musician.

"It made it easier to be able to really get in there," Cooper replied.

"And thank God I was at a place in my life where I was comfortable with all of that, so I could let myself go," he continued.

"I've been very lucky with the roles I've had to play. It has been a real blessing. I hope I can continue to do it," added Cooper.

In an exclusive clip from the episode previously shared with People, Cooper also talked about how his father dying of lung cancer in 2011 affected his outlook on life.

"I definitely had a nihilistic attitude for a while," he said.

“I don't know, it wasn't good for a while, until I realized I had to embrace who I really am and try to find some peace with that. And then it was somehow fixed," he added at the time.

Cooper also opened up to Grylls about how his father's death has affected his experience as a father.

Bradley Cooper shares his daughter Lea, 6, with Russian model Irina Shayk.
