In 2023, the actor revealed in his biography that he was being treated for a rare form of blood cancer. Now he tells 7News Australia that the cancer is gone.

Neill played the villain Brian de Bois-Guilbert in the 1982 television film "Ivanhoe," which has become a cult classic in Sweden.

An amused Neill has sent greetings to Swedes several times in connection with the film being shown on New Year's Day.

"I am proud of you," he said via SVT.

To the rest of the world, Neill is perhaps best known for his role as Dr. Alan Grant in "Jurassic Park."
