Rolling Stone in 2016. "It was mysterious to me, that these two guys that I felt such passion for both died the same way."At that time in 2016, Ethan was starring in a biopic about Chet Baker, a trumpeter who died following a lifelong battle with drugs.

Ethan Hawke spoke out against what he believes was Hollywood’s mistreatment of his late co-star, River Phoenix.  The actor, 50, appeared alongside Phoenix in the largely unsuccessful 1985 film “Explorers” when they were both 14.

River Phoenix was a victim of Hollywood.

Explorers, died at the age of 23 in 1993 after a drug overdose in Los Angeles.However, speaking in a new interview, Hawke admitted his aversion to making big Hollywood films stems from his co-star and friend’s death.“You know what you asked me about earlier, why I don’t make easier movies?” he told The Guardian.

Ethan Hawke has said that his former co-star River Phoenix, who died in 1993, was “chewed up” by Hollywood.Phoenix was just 23 and one of the film industry’s brightest stars when he died of a drug overdose outside a Los Angeles nightclub.

Ethan Hawke is an extremely proud dad.
