Jeff Bridges is sharing some good news pertaining to his health.

The “Big Lebowski” star, 75, told People in an interview published Friday that his health is “very good” and he’s “feeling good” almost five years after he was diagnosed with lymphoma.

“Some things, it’s hard to tell if it’s the cancer and the Covid or if it’s just old age,” he said, adding that he has encountered some memory issues and that he believes he’s dealing with some “long-term” effects from Covid-19.

“I can’t smell,” Bridges said.

In October 2020, the actor shared his cancer diagnosis via X.

“Although it is a serious disease, I feel fortunate that I have a great team of doctors and the prognosis is good,” Bridges wrote at the time. “I’m starting treatment and will keep you posted on my recovery.”
