U.S. actor Bob Odenkirk is in stable condition at a New Mexico hospital Wednesday, a day after suffering a heart attack while in production on the sixth and final season of AMC’s “Better Call Saul.” “We can confirm Bob is in stable condition after experiencing a heart-related incident,” representatives for the actor said in a statement Wednesday afternoon. “He and his family would like to express gratitude for the incredible doctors and nurses looking after him, as well as his cast, crew and producers who have stayed by his side. The Odenkirks would also like to thank everyone for the outpouring of well wishes and ask for their privacy at this time as Bob works on his recovery.” The 58-year-old star of the “Breaking Bad” prequel series collapsed on the Albuquerque set Tuesday. Crew members immediately called an ambulance. AMC said in a statement that “The immediate outpouring of affection and concern from fans around the world is a clear reflection of Bob’s immense talents and ability to both move and entertain people.” Sources say production was a little more than halfway done on the final season at the time of Odenkirk’s heart attack. Production remained halted Wednesday as everyone involved with the series remains focused on Odenkirk’s health. Odenkirk is a four-time Emmy nominee for his role as slimy lawyer Saul Goodman, a role he originated on AMC’s Emmy-winning drama “Breaking Bad.” He reprises the role and leads the call sheet on prequel spinoff “Better Call Saul.” Colleagues past and present have sent wishes to Odenkirk via social media, with “Breaking Bad” stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul among those voicing support. “Today I woke up to news that has made me anxious all morning,” Cranston said on Instagram on Wednesday morning. “Please take a moment in your day today to think about him and send positive thoughts and prayers, thank you.” Paul also posted a brief message, simply writing, “I love you my friend.”(SD-Agencies) |
