Bob Odenkirk is receiving a flood of support from his fans and co-stars after collapsing on the set of Better Call Saul.
The Saul Goodman actor was rushed to the hospital Tuesday while shooting the Breaking Bad prequel series in New Mexico, TMZ reported. It reportedly wasn't clear whether he was conscious when he was taken to the hospital. Further updates on Odenkirk's condition and the reason for his collapse weren't immediately available, but TMZ wrote that he is "still in the hospital under the care of doctors."
Odenkirk's Mr. Show with Bob and David collaborator David Cross in a tweet wrote that he "will share what I know when I can," but he added, "Bob is one of the strongest people I know both physically and spiritually. He WILL get through this." Michael McKean also sent "huge love" to his Better Call Saul co-star, adding, "You got this, brother." McKean portrayed the brother of Odenkirk's Better Call Saul character.
