The 67-year-old actor and estranged spouse Rhea Perlman, 64, announced in October they were separating after 30 years of marriage, but now the `Twins` star has admitted he is still "really close" to the actress and they are hoping to get back together.

Asked about life as a single man, he told US TV show `Extra`: `It`s not something you adjust to. Rhea and I are really close. Actually, still together, just separate, but together."

Asked if they are getting back together, he added: "We`re working on it."

The couple - who met in 1970 and tied the knot in 1982 - have not filed divorce papers and first sparked rumours of a reconciliation when they were seen together at Los Angeles International Airport last month.

Danny and Rhea met when she went to see off-Broadway play, `The Shrinking Bride`, which the actor was appearing in.

The couple - who have three children Lucy, Grace and Jacob, together - founded production company Jersey Films, which is behind 1994 crime movie `Pulp Fiction` as well as `Garden State` and `Freedom Writers`.
