JUPITER, Fla. — Burt Reynolds' manager said the actor was released from a Florida hospital after a planned heart bypass operation.

Erik Kritzer said in a statement Wednesday that Reynolds had been scheduled for the operation for more than a month.

Kritzer said the star of "Smokey and the Bandit," "Deliverance" and "Boogie Nights" told him he has "a great motor with brand new pipes" and is "feeling great."

Last year, Reynolds spent time in a Florida rehab center after treatment for painkiller abuse following back surgery.

Reynolds is 74.
