Al Pacino revealed on a podcast this weekend that he almost died during a bout with Covid-19 — a near-death experience that left the star actor pondering his mortality. Pacino, 84, was plugging his memoir “Sonny Boy” on The New York Times’ podcast “The Interview,” when he recounted how in 2020 he’d fallen sick at his home from Covid and the situation quickly became dicey.
