William Stack is best remembered as Tommy Duncan on CNC's "Dance with the Devil", where he played a young boy molested by his baseball coach. His leap to stardom at the tender age of eight was followed by a string of commercials and film and television roles. But soon, it all caught up with him. Parties, drugs, arrests. By the time he was twelve, he had been fired from the show and soon he was in and out of rehab. Tonight we will talk to William Stack about his meteoric rise to fame, his shocking fall from grace, and what the future may hold. Tonight we'll take a look at the dark side of Hollywood... and the possibility of a silver lining.
