Scarlett Johansson's lover in Woody Allen's '
Match Point' - is to be treated for alcoholism. Meyer's representative, Meredith O'Sullivan, said: "After a non-stop succession of filming, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has entered an alcohol-treatment programme. He felt a break was needed to maintain his recovery." ,br>
The 29-year-old is currently starring as British monarch King Henry VIII in Showtime's TV costume drama 'The Tudors'. He recently began filming '
August Rush' which co-stars
Keri Russell,
