In less than one year, Mel Gibson has been able to reform.
According to a U.S. Judge, the Hollywood heavyweight has now gotten a hold of his alcoholism that caused him to relapse and make anti-Semitic remarks in 2006.
Mel, one of the most successful actors in the world, was arrested for driving under the influence and then proceeded to make racist remarks against his arresting officer. However, after some treatment and probation, Judge Lawrence Mira is pleased with Mel's progress.
The Judge told the court hearing, which Mel was not present at, "I truly believe the rehabilitation... in this case is effective. I don't want anything to interrupt that," reports the BBC.
The BBC also adds that Judge Mira is eager to meet the actor "to ensure we are all on the same page" during his probation.
After the "Passion Of The Christ" filmmaker was arrested, he released a statement saying, "I am not an anti-Semite. I am not a bigot. Hatred of any kind goes against my faith."
The star became a controversial figure in Hollywood following the incident.
