The American playwright and actor Jeremy O. Harris has been released from detention in Japan three weeks after he was taken into custody on suspicion of smuggling the psychedelic drug ecstasy.
The 36-year-old Harris, known for his Tony-nominated “ Slave Play,” was freed from police custody Monday, the Tomishiro police department told The Associated Press on Wednesday. It declined to say if Harris, who also starred in “Emily in Paris,” was released on bail or if he had left the country.
