Cameron Douglas, the eldest son of Michael Douglas, has been released from prison after nearly seven years.
The 37-year-old was arrested in 2009 when he was caught with, and selling, drugs, and was sentenced to five years jail.
His sentence was extended after he was caught smuggling drugs into prison, and was spent in solitary confinement, meaning he could have no visitors.
Cameron was not supposed to be released until next year, but Page Six reports that his sentence has been cut short.

Michael spoke about his son’s treatment at the hands of the prison system in his 2013 acceptance speech for Behind the Candelabra.
“At first I was certainly disappointed with my son, but I’ve reached a point now where I’m disappointed with the system,” he said.
“If you happen to have a slip, they punish you. In my son’s case, he has spent almost two years in solitary confinement.”
Cameron talks about his strong bond with his dad in the video below.
