Michael Douglas is Optimistic About Recovery and Plans to Play ‘Liberace’

Michael Douglas isn’t just eager to beat cancer – he’s also ready to go back on camera.

The actor plans to play the title role in “Liberace,” a biopic from Steven Soderbergh that is set to start shooting this spring.

Despite constant, ugly tabloid speculation about his health, Douglas and his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones have been active, taking their children to Disney World and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in recent days.

He’s also spent time growing closer to his iconic father, Kirk Douglas, who – during an extended stay in New York – visited Michael daily after his diagnosis.

Doctors have told Douglas there is an 80% cure rate for his cancer.

In January, he will learn whether he’s cancer-free.
