LOS ANGELES - Owen Wilson is going back to work for the first time since his suicide attempt last summer.

Wilson, 39, and co-star Jennifer Aniston begin shooting March 10 on 20th Century Fox’s “Marley & Me,” the tale of a couple that adopts a dog to give parenthood a trial run then finds the mischievous pooch more than they bargained for.

After he was hospitalized last August, Wilson dropped out of this summer’s comedy “Tropic Thunder,” which already had been in production. He was replaced by Matthew McConaughey.
