Tony Curtis was reported in excellent condition Tuesday after three-hour heart bypass surgery in Los Angeles.

Curtis, 68, underwent the operation Monday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

"A week or so ago he went in for a physical, and they turned up a couple of blocked arteries," said Jennifer Walsh, the actor's publicist. "He's doing everything he's supposed to do, and he's in excellent condition. He should be home Saturday or Sunday."

Curtis has starred in such movies as "Some Like It Hot," as well as "Naked in New York," which opens this month.
