It was a long period of illness for Dolph Lundgren. As early as 2015, the actor was diagnosed with cancer and received treatment for it. But in 2020, the cancer came back, this time in several organs at the same time, in both the kidney and lung as well as in the stomach and spine.

Now Dolph Lundgren is also free from that cancer.

I'm at the hospital in LA and I'll soon remove the last dead tumor. Since there are no cancer cells left in my body, I assume I'll be cancer-free, says Dolph Lundgren in a video on Instagram, writes Expressen.

The 67-year-old Swede has continued his acting career alongside cancer treatments. The star, who got his breakthrough in "Rocky IV" in the 1980s, has recently been seen in films like "Expandables 4" and "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom".
