In a statement released on Monday, David Duchovny’s attorney said that the actor has checked out from the rehabilitation center where he completed a program for sex addiction.

"David has successfully completed his rehabilitation," Stanton "Larry" Stein said in a statement. "He is out of rehab and will be starting a movie soon."

David Duchovny has voluntarily checked into rehab in August. Duchovny, who has been married to actress Tea Leoni since May 1997, became a household name in the 1990s through his portrayal of unconventional FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, in cult TV series “The X-Files.” He was on the show from 1993, when it first aired on the Fox Network, until 2002, but appeared sporadically in the series’ last two seasons.

Duchovny, 48, and Leoni, 42, are parents to daughter Madelaine West, 9, and son Kyd Miller, 6.

David Duchovny and co-star Gillian Anderson also starred in 1998’s “The X-Files,” a feature film based on the TV show, and in “The X-Files: I Want to Believe,” a sequel released earlier this summer with a disappointing box office performance.

David Duchovny recently re-emerged on television in Showtime’s “Californication,” where he portrays Hank Moody, a conflicted novelist living in Los Angeles who is confronted with writers’ block and a troubled personal life.

Duchovny received a Golden Globe Award as best comic actor in January for his performance on the series.

Besides his work in “Californication” David Duchovny is set to star in “The Joneses”, a movie which will be released next year. The movie is the directorial debut of Derrick Borte and Duchovny will be joined by Demi Moore and Amber Heard.
