Bob Odenkirk hospitalized after collapsing on ‘Better Call Saul’ set - Yahoo Entertainment

Bob Odenkirk, the star of Better Call Saul, has been hospitalized after collapsing on the set Tuesday.

The 58-year-old actor was shooting the AMC show in New Mexico when he fell ill and crew members called an ambulance, Yahoo Entertainment confirms. 

It's not immediately clear what led to Odenkirk's collapse, or if he was conscious when he was transported to the hospital. He remained hospitalized on Wednesday morning.

Better Call Saul, the Breaking Bad spin-off which has earned him four Emmy nominations for acting, is shooting its sixth and final season in Albuquerque. The coronavirus delayed production but the show — centered around his character Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman — is expected to return to TV in 2022.

Odenkirk received well wishes from co-star Michael McKean, who sent "huge love" and told him, "You got this brother."

David Cross, his Mr. Show with Bob and David co-star, tweeted that Odenkirk "is one of the strongest people I know both physically and spiritually. He WILL get through this." Cross also promised to "share what I know when I can."

Odenkirk started as a TV writer on shows including Saturday Night Live before his starring roles. He's also appeared on TV's Fargo and in films including 2019's Little Women, 2018's Incredibles 2 and 2021's Nobody.

Elizabeth Hurley said it was a "nightmare" working with Matthew Perry on their 2002 film "Serving Sara," which was shot at the height of his drug addiction.  The production had to be abruptly shut down because the "Friends" star needed to enter rehab for two months.  Still, the "Royals" actress doesn’t hold it against Perry, who detailed his addiction struggles in his new memoir, "Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing."  Hurley recently told Yahoo! Entertainment it was a "little tough" during the film’s hiatus. But when he returned to filming after two months in rehab he was "fabulous."

Daisy Edgar-Jones in ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’: Film Review - Hollywood Reporter

Image
Where the Crawdads Sing is the kind of tedious moral fantasy that fuels America’s misguided idealism. It’s an attempt at a complex tale about rejection, difference and survival. But the film, like the novel it’s based on, skirts the issues — of race, gender and class — that would texture its narrative and strengthen its broad thesis, resulting in a story that says more about how whiteness operates in a society allergic to interdependence than it does about how communities fail young people. Directed by Olivia Newman ( First Match ), the film adaptation of Delia Owens’ popular and controversial novel of the same name tells the remarkable tale of a shy, reclusive girl raised in the marshes of North Carolina who finds herself embroiled in a grisly police investigation. Her name is Kya ( Daisy Edgar-Jones of Normal People , Fresh and Under the Banner of Heaven ), but to those in the neighboring town, whose residents abhor her, she is known simply as “Marsh Girl.” The account of her...
