Al Pacino has opened up about depression and has claimed that it's ominous and is in everyone.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the 74-year-old American actor admitted that he is depressed sometimes, as certain things make him sad, but he doesn't know about it, and added that depression is ominous and everyone can relate to it.
'The Godfather' actor added that people get into depression and its "terrifying", and even confessed that he has come close to it a few times, but feels lucky and spared that it wasn't so "deep".
He further added that he took up the role in 'The Humbling' as he is familiar with depression and found similarities with the character.
