David Duchovny has left rehab after completing treatment for sex addiction, Reuters reports.

Duchovny's lawyer Stanton Stein said: "[David] has successfully completed rehabilitation. He is out and will very soon begin work on his new movie."

The actor admitted himself to a rehab centre in August, requesting privacy for his wife Tea Leoni and their two children.

Duchovny Showtime series Californication, in which he plays sex-obsessed novelist Hank Moody, returned for its second series in the US last month.
