The 'Men In Black 3' actor has opened up on his past struggles with the "horrible" class A drug admitting that while he never became addicted to the substance, he has 19 friends who have all died after overdosing on the drug.
Josh told The Guardian newspaper: "I tried heroin. That sounds so horrible when you put it like that. But yeah, I tried heroin.

The 46-year-old actor admits he used to be open to experimenting with different drugs, in a bid to live life to the fullest, however he now regrets putting his life in danger.
Josh explained: "I used to think you should try to deconstruct everything. Experience everything. Just get yourself out there. But I don't believe that any more. Having adventures is all very well, but an imagination can make up for all that. That's the more intelligent way to be. And it keeps you out of harm's way."

Justin Bieber may have to answer Selena Gomez questions


Justin Bieber could be forced to talk about Selena Gomez in court.
The troubled singer was asked about his on/off girlfriend during his deposition last week - part of the ongoing lawsuit after his bodyguard allegedly beat up a photographer - and refused to answer questions, but now the lawyer has insisted he has a right to know whether they are currently dating.
According to gossip website TMZ, the 'Beauty and a Beat' hitmaker may have to open up about their rumoured reconciliation after court documents were filed.
The lawyer - representing the photographer - has claimed Justin and Selena's relationship is relevant to the case because she was with him at the scene of another apparent attack on a paparazzo in 2012.
It is said if Justin and Selena are back together, she could be considered a biased witness and not credible.
He responded: "Don't ask me about her! Do not ask me about her!"
In addition to forcing Justin to answer questions about the 'Spring Breakers' actress, the lawyer also wants him to be punished for his rude behaviour before he walked out of court during the deposition.
