The 52-year-old actor said he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This rare disease affects the musculoskeletal system and is currently untreatable. Unfortunately, people with ALS have between three and ten years to live.

"I am grateful to have my loving family by my side as we navigate this next chapter. I feel fortunate that I am able to continue working and am looking forward to returning to set of Euphoria next week. I kindly ask that you give my family and I privacy during this time," Dane said.
