The Moulin Rouge star insists he is ���fine��� after having several cancerous moles removed from just below his right eye. Ewan decided it was ���best to be looked at��� by doctors after realising his pale skin meant he was at a greater risk of developing the potentially fatal disease.
The 37-year-old actor explained to newsmen: ���I just went to have them checked, you have to be careful if you���re pale skinned and you spend time in the sun, with moles.
���I went to see a specialist who thought they were better to be removed, and he was correct. The surgery was not a big of deal.��� When asked if he found the experience frightening, he replied sarcastically: ���It was great fun having skin cancer, it was great!���
