Actor David Duchovny, who plays a womanising novelist on the cable TV series Californication, has completed a rehabilitation program for sex addiction.
Duchovny, former star of The X-Files films and TV series, is married to actress Tea Leoni and they have two children.
The actor's admission to a rehab facility for treatment of sex addiction was publicly revealed by his attorney, Stanton "Larry" Stein, in late August.
In a statement on Monday (local time), Mr Stein said Duchovny "has successfully completed rehabilitation."
"He is out and will very soon begin work on his new movie," Mr Stein said.
Mr Stein declined to say where the actor had been treated or when he left the centre.
In January, Duchovny, 48, won a Golden Globe award for best actor in a comedy for his role as Hank Moody, an oversexed single dad and novelist struggling with writer's block in Californication.
