Actor Bob Odenkirk reportedly collapsed on set while filming the latest season of the Breaking Bad prequel show Better Call Saul in New Mexico yesterday. Odenkirk stars in the show as the titular Saul Goodman. The 58-year-old actor was rushed to the hospital, with no public update given about the status of his health.
The internet quickly rushed to the support of Odenkirk, tweeting out their thoughts, prayers and well-wishes for the beloved actor and eagerly awaiting an update.
Bob Odenkirk is a great boss, even to a piddling PA like me. He supports comics and he’s a brilliant light. He needs to continue to exist. So imagine him healthy and fine in your mind’s eye, even for just a little bit, today.

Earlier today Bryan Cranston, who famously starred as Walter White in Breaking Bad, where Odenkirk first won over fans with his performance as the wise-cracking criminal lawyer, made a post sharing his anxiety about Odenkirk's collapse and wishing him well, encouraging all to give him their thoughts and prayers. The post was made alongside a photo of Cranston and Odenkirk side-by-side.
At the time of writing, the status of Odenkirk's health remains unknown.
