Owen Wilson to return to work next month

Owen WilsonActor Owen Wilson is set to return to work next month for the first time since his suicide attempt in August last year.

The 'Meet the Fockers' star has been focusing on recovering following the suicide attempt, and now feels ready to return to the Miami set of 'Marley and Me'.

Hardy Hill, the VIP Ambassador of South Beach's The Opium Group nightclub, said: "Miami loves it when Owen it in town and we are all happy to see him back at work in our city.

"Owen attracted lots of attention when he was here last, and having a bit of Hollywood in South Florida is always great. We hope to see his face at some of our venues."

Last year, Owen, 39, was rushed to hospital after reportedly trying to slit his wrists.

Following his release, the Hollywood star dropped out of the Ben Stiller comedy 'Tropic Thunder', instead choosing to relax with friend Woody Harrelson in Peru and Miami Beach.

'Marley and Me' - which also stars Jennifer Aniston - is based on a memoir of a young columnist, John Grogan, who moves to South Florida with his wife and adopts a puppy called Marley.

Production on the romantic comedy begins in Miami on March 10. It is due to be released in December.
