Remember how cagey actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers was picked up at the Dublin airport last month for a drunken outburst before boarding his flight to London? Well, since the Tudors star “unreservedly apologizes” to the airport security guards, police and staff who had to deal with the mess, things have started to look up for the 30-year-old actor. Today, Angela Ni Chonduin, a judge for the Dublin District Court, dropped all charges, cautioning Mr. Rhys Meyers to avoid any further embarrassing incidents. The actor’s lawyer, Michael Staines, told the court that his client “accepts his behavior was unacceptable and out of character,” adding that the actor would be donating money to charity.
