JUPITER, Fla. — Burt Reynolds’ manager said the actor has been released from a Florida hospital after heart-bypass surgery.
Erik Kritzer said Wednesday that Reynolds, 74, had been scheduled to have the operation for more than a month, went into the hospital Monday and was discharged Tuesday. Kritzer said the star of “Smokey and the Bandit,” “Deliverance” and “Boogie Nights” told him he has “a great motor with brand new pipes” and is “feeling great.”
Last year, Reynolds spent time in treatment for painkiller abuse after having back surgery.
