LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Caption Mischa Barton in London, June 27, 2009Mischa Barton is out of the hospital and plans a return to work almost two weeks after Los Angeles police say they escorted her for an undisclosed medical problem.

Spokesman Craig Schneider said Monday that the 23-year-old actress is “out of the hospital and continuing to improve in anticipation of resuming production as planned.”

He would not elaborate on Barton’s condition, but said Monday that Barton planned to report to work on the new CW series “The Beautiful Life.” A CW spokesman for the show, which stars Barton as a pill-popping supermodel, said last week that production was scheduled to begin Friday.

Police say they removed Barton from her home July 15. Department officials won’t say what the problem was.
