ROME (Reuters) -Oscar-winning director Francis Ford Coppola has been discharged from the hospital in Rome where he was admitted two days ago, and is "feeling good", a person familiar with the matter said on Thursday.

Coppola was in Italy to promote his latest movie, the science-fiction epic “Megalopolis,” a $120 million self-funded production.

On Instagram, the filmmaker reassured his fans: “Da Dada (what my kids call me) is fine, taking an opportunity while in Rome to do the update of my 30 year old afib procedure with its inventor, a great Italian doctor - Dr. Andrea Natale! I am well!”
