Chase has had struggles with substances during his career. He checked into the Betty Ford Clinic in the 1980s for treatment for an addiction to prescription painkillers. The 72-year-old former star of “Saturday Night Live” and the “Vacation” movies was recently a regular on TV’s “Community” from 2009 to 2014. h/t townhall
The Lodge, an extension of the traditional twelve-step treatment, has hosted countless celebrities, including the late Robin Williams.
Chase has a pair of films slated for future release, “The Christmas Apprentice,” and “Dog Years.”
