Funnyman actor Owen Wilson is reportedly dropping out of an upcoming ensemble comedy "Tropic Thunder."

Film industry trade papers reported today that Wilson will not appear in the Dreamworks movie, already six weeks into production in Hawaii, Daily Variety and The Hollywood Reporter said.

Citing sources they didn't identify, the decision was characterized as a mutual agreement between director Ben Stiller and the 38-year-old actor, who was taken to the hospital Sunday after police responded to the report of a suicide attempt at his Santa Monica home.

The Hollywood Reporter said Wilson had a minor part in the movie, which stars Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr. and revolves around a group of actors who find themselves in the middle of a war.

Wilson's part was to be filmed in just a week, the trade paper said.

Wilson was hooked on heroin and cocaine, struggling with depression and hanging out with the wrong crowd in the months before his attempted suicide, according to a bombshell new report.
