Michael J Fox to return on TV

London, July 20 : Actor Michael J Fox is all set for a comeback in Hollywood after his doctors give him a green-signal to work again.

Fox, who starred in the 'Back To The Future' film trilogy, has been told by doctors that his Parkinson's disease is medically controlled and his fit enough to work again.

The 47-year-old actor will appear as a new character in the hugely successful US TV series 'Rescue Me'.

Denis Leary, star and co-creator of the comedy drama, offered the recurring role to the actor.

It was in 1998 that Fox revealed his condition and took semi-retiriement from acting two years later. However, his friends claim that new medication regime has dramatically improved his health.

"Michael is thrilled about the chance of appearing regularly in a show again," The Daily Express quoted one of his pals, as saying.
