Filmmaker Aaron Sorkin revealed he was fighting for his life after battling a stroke. The 61-year-old producer spoke out about the severe health condition he suffered from before working on a major Broadway project in New York City.  "[I’m] supposed to be dead," Sorkin told the New York Times. "There was a minute when I was concerned that I was never going to be able to write again," he confessed.

In November 2022, the "West Wing" creator worked on a rewritten version of the Broadway show "Camelot." However, after his near-fatal stroke, he admitted his speech was impacted, where he slurred his words and lost mobility in his hands.

Sorkin noted that it was hard to write his name and he had difficulty typing. Sorkin decided to make some life changes and incorporated healthier habits into his daily life after his massive health scare.

Sorkin admitted he began smoking during his high school years and used to smoke two packs of cigarettes daily before he finally made the decision to quit.
