The actor went on to reflect on his own career, noting that he's had the "good fortune" of engaging in many interesting conversations and collaborating with "top-shelf people" over the last couple of years. Goggins said he wouldn't take any of those experiences back, even if being in the spotlight means his popularity could wane.

The actor seems to have a positive outlook, recognizing that being included in such headlines is a "blessing" rather than a curse.
Goggins, who was recently nominated for his role in The White Lotus, has several upcoming projects, including an animated film and a climbing movie. He also returns for Season 2 of the Prime Video series Fallout, for which he received an Emmy nomination last year.
