Samuel L Jackson's history

Samuel L. Jackson, best known for his role as Jules Winnfield in 1994’s cult hit Pulp Fiction, opened up about his drug addiction problems earlier in his life, that affected the path of his career. Speaking to News Corp, he said, “We were doing it while we were f***ed up so it was like, ‘OK let’s go out here and trip this audience out, OK?’”

“The two women that actually found me passed out on the floor after I left somebody’s bachelor party and put me in rehab the next day. And supported me and pushed me and give me a reason to get up and go and chase it day after day after day,” Samuel said of his wife and daughter LaTanya Richardson and Zoe, while accepting his Lifetime Achievement award at the BET Awards last Sunday night.
