Photo Agency Actor Christian Slater never thought he’d survive to turn 40 back in his Hollywood hellraising days. He said: I just hit 40, so what more can I say? I mean, the fact that I'm 40 is a miracle. I'm on the other side now. I feel like I've hit a certain milestone and I'm going onward and upward.

Christian Slater is planning to return to TV in ABC’s “The Forgotten” – he was last seen on the failed “My Own Worst Enemy” on NBC. “Forgotten” comes from producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and, if Christian Slater’s negotiations go through, will star Slater as a former cop whose 11-year-old daughter was kidnapped.
