Jurassic Park star Sam Neill has revealed he has "never felt better" after receiving treatment for stage-three blood cancer.
The 75-year-old actor has been in remission for several months following his diagnosis of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma last year.
Sam has now said he first experienced swollen glands, which can be a symptom of lymphoma, during publicity calls for Jurassic World Dominion in March last year.
The Hollywood icon took a break from acting following his cancer diagnosis.
In an interview about his new book, Did I Ever Tell You This?, he revealed he is now doing much better and has returned to work.
"Well, I'm great, you know, I've been about seven or eight months in remission, and I'm back at work, and I've never felt better," he said during an appearance on The Michael Ball Show on Sunday.
He added: "I sort of approached the year as really being a bit of an adventure… I didn't know what was [going to] happen.
"A bit of a dark adventure but here we are on the other side, and I'm very optimistic and full of life and I'm so happy to be back at work, I can't tell you."
In his upcoming memoir, Sam reportedly discusses receiving chemotherapy, which started to fail, before taking a new chemotherapy drug which he will take monthly for the rest of his life, despite now being cancer-free.
He recently took to Instagram to provide fans with an update on his health.
In a video shared on Saturday, Sam said: My news seems to be all over the news at the moment, and it's sort of 'Cancer! Cancer! Cancer!'
"Which is slightly tiresome because as you see, I am alive and well and I have been in remission for eight months, which feels really good. And I’m alive and kicking and I'm going to work.
"I'm very happy to be going back to work. We start filming in seven days time."
Sam is joining the cast of Peacock series Apples Never Fall, which also stars Annette Bening and Alison Brie.
Speaking in his video, Sam added: "I just wish the headline wasn’t 'that thing' so much, because the main thing is that I have written this book, it's called Did I Ever Tell You This?
"And it does mention cancer because that's the sort of context in which I wrote it."
Finishing his video, the actor said: "So I hope you enjoy it, and let’s not worry too much about 'all that' because I'm fine."
Sam's memoir is set to be released later this month and will detail his decades-long career.
