The actor previously revealed about his painkiller addiction in 2011. This led him to volunteer in checking himself at a rehabilitation center for a 30-day treatment. During that time, he played the role of Dr. Mark "McSteamy" Sloan on "Grey's Anatomy."

Twitter user, cheryltunts said that she can relate to Dane. She added, "Lots of respect for Eric Dane admitting that he's on hiatus for depression. I've def made up excuses for missing work bc of depression."
Meanwhile, Twitter user Britt Rivera pointed on the importance of how Eric Dane and the crew dealt with his depression. She praised the actor and the show.

According to him, this will result in several changes to the brain's activity. He continued, "Trying something new alters the levels of [the brain chemical] dopamine, which is associated with pleasure, enjoyment, and learning."

"The Last Ship" Season 4 Updates

"The Last Ship" starring Eric Dane is currently working on a back-to-back production for both season 4 and 5. Prior to the big reveal, the show just got back from a two-week break during spring.

The new development might prolong the filming schedule but it won't actually affect the fate of the sci-fi action series. TNT previously renewed the series for two more seasons due to its high ratings and strong following. "The Last Ship" Season 4 will premiere next year as part of the Summer 2018 TV schedule.
