HOLLYWOOD - Troubled actor Owen Wilson is "doing really well" following his suicide attempt, according to his good friend Ben Stiller.

Wilson was hospitalized in August after making an attempt on his life at his Santa Monica, California, home.

He is now back at home and being looked after by a paid 'companion'--and Stiller reveals he is making a good recovery.

The actor tells talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres--in an interview due to air on Friday--"He's doing really well. I sort of like to protect his privacy, 'cause I feel like it's his own thing.

"But he's a really good friend of mine. He's an incredible guy and I wish him, as everybody does, all the best."
