<p>Actor Michael Douglas will find out next month if he has won his fight against throat cancer.</p>
<p>And the 66-year-old Hollywood star said he is already looking forward to his next film role.</p>
<p>Douglas told Hollywood Reporter magazine that he will play the title part in Steven Soderbergh&#8217;s Liberace, which is due to begin shooting in May or June.</p>
<p>Doctors have told him there is an 80% cure rate for his cancer &#8211; an illness the actor said had brought him closer to his 93-year-old father, Kirk Douglas.</p>
<p>The pair had a strained relationship for many years, but &#8220;he really made an effort&#8221; after the diagnosis, Douglas said. &#8220;He was back here almost 10 days. He came over every day. He was great.&#8221;</p>
<p>Douglas said that when he was growing up, his father was angry and often absent. &#8220;In those key years, when Kirk was doing five movies a year, if we saw him it was only out of his guilt.&#8221;</p>
<p>He also acknowledged that he may have repeated that pattern with his own son, Cameron Douglas, 31, who was recently jailed on drug-related charges.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s not easy, either, being a third generation,&#8221; Douglas said. &#8220;Kirk was all-consumed, was overworked. Probably like myself at a certain time in my life.&#8221;</p>
<p>Douglas also reflected on his recent difficulties with ex-wife Diandra Douglas, whose bid to claim half of his earnings from &#8220;Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps&#8221; was dismissed in a New York court earlier this month.</p>
<p>He was optimistic about his recovery, and while the disease &#8220;certainly has put a little perspective on mortality&#8221;, he said it had also &#8220;shown me what family is&#8221;. He added: &#8220;It showed me a love that I never knew really existed.&#8221;</p>
