‘Better Call Saul’ actor Bob Odenkirk had collapsed on the show’s New Mexico set. He was then rushed to a hospital.
Representatives for the performer issued a statement the next day saying he was listed in stable condition "after experiencing a heart-related incident."
In a pair of Twitter posts, the actor said, "I had a small heart attack. But I'm going to be OK thanks to Rosa Estrada and the doctors who knew how to fix the blockage without surgery." The reference to Rosa Estrada was not explained.
He had also thanked the AMC network and producers Sony Pictures Television for their support, and family and friends for "the outpouring of love," adding, "I`m going to take a beat to recover but I'll be back soon."
