“Jurassic Park” star Sam Neill has said he is cancer-free after almost five years of battling stage-three blood cancer.

“I’ve been living with a particular type of lymphoma for about five years and I was on chemotherapy and the pretty miserable business but it was keeping me alive,” Neill, who is best known for playing Alan Grant in the “Jurassic Park” franchise, told Australian network 7News of his treatment.
