blood cancer diagnosis, assuring fans that his stage three angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma is in remission and that’s “alive and kicking.”“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,” the “Jurassic Park” actor said in a video posted on Instagram. “And I’m alive and kicking and I’m going to work.”After assuring fans that he is doing well, the “Hunt for Red October” actor also revealed that he is “very happy” going back to work in a week to begin production on “Apples Never Fall” alongside Annette Bening.Neill said that he is lamenting headlines focused on his diagnosis, which he discovered while promoting “Jurassic World Dominion” last year, noting that they missed the “main thing” happening in his life: the upcoming March 21 release of his memoir, titled “Did I Ever Tell You This?,” which the actor wrote over the course of several months in 2022 that were inextricably tied to his diagnosis.“It does mention cancer because that’s the sort of context in which I wrote it,” Neill said.
