Denzel recently wrapped production on the new film “The Taking of Pelham 123″ where he worked with co-star John Travolta. It was quite obvious during filming how deeply disturbed and emotionally distraught Travolta still was about his only son’s death.

Denzel Washington spoke about his grieving “The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3″ co-star John Travolta at press conference for the new flick. Washington told reporters on Friday, Travolta continues to cope with the death of his son, Jett. Denzel said, “Needless to say, he’s struggling.”

Washington said he spoke with Travolta on the phone two weeks ago and he “listened to him for about two or three hours.”

Travolta’s healing process is “going to take time,” Washington says. “What can you say, really? Just be there as a friend, because he’s such a sweet, sweet person. Our prayers are with he and his wife.”

In January, Jett Travolta, 16, died unexpectedly while the family was vacationing in the Bahamas.

We can’t imagine the grief Travolta and his family must be dealing with.

    I don’t know how John Travolta even completed this film. If I was in his shoes I would be a basket case. Stay strong John.

    ========== TOO LOSE YOUR CHILD OVER SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE BEEN PREVENTED IF HE WERE MEDICALLY SUPERVISED ROUND THE CLOCK IS PAINFULL/ BUT TO MISS THEIR SMILES, SEEING THEIR POSSESSIONS, BIRTHDAYS ETC. AND KNOWING THEY ARE GONE IS DEVASTATING. I HOPE HIS WORK AND FAMILY KEEPS HIM HEALTHY AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT GOD DOESNT TAKE PEOPLE UNLESS HE HAS A BETTER PLAN FOR THEM! HE’S A GOOD ACTOR AND SEEMS TO BE A TRULY DOWN TO EARTH GENTLEMAN…
