James Van Der Beek Is ‘Feeling Strong’ & 'in a Good Place' Amid Cancer Battle (Exclusive)


James Van Der Beek, Anthony Anderson, Taye Diggs, Tyler Posey, and Bruno Tonioli sit down with “Extra’s” Melvin Robert to dish on their new special “The Real Full Monty,” inspired by the beloved 1997 film. We’ll see the fellas, brought together by Anthony, rehearse and perform a revealing strip-tease number, all to help raise awareness for prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer testing and research. They dished on their training and having fun together as a team — just how much of the “Full Monty” will we see? Anthony, Taye, and James are all dads, and they shared what their kids think! Plus, they spoke about the importance of the cause and message, which hits especially close to home for James, who is battling colon cancer. He shared the update that he is “feeling strong” and “in a good place.” “The Real Full Monty” premieres December 9 on FOX.
