Woody Harrelson is quite an actor. In the new action-comedy "Zombieland" he plays a post-apocalyptic survivor with a fondness for Twinkies. In real life, Harrelson is a vegan who won't go near junk food. But you'd swear he has a Twinkie addiction judging from his on-screen performance.
During production, the former "Cheers" star actually was feasting on faux Twinkies specially made of cornmeal and other healthy ingredients. "They were actually edible for a guy like me," he says, smiling. "There's a possibility that (manufacturer) Hostess could do a healthy Twinkie. It's a thought."

An environmental activist and outspoken supporter of marijuana legalization, Harrelson has run afoul of the law a few times over the years. He was arrested in 1996 for planting hemp seeds but was subsequently acquitted. He also has demonstrated alongside the radical environmental group Earth First! and protested the destruction of the redwoods.
