Odenkirk suddenly collapsed on Tuesday during the recording of Better call Saul, the spin-off of Breaking bad. Colleagues would have immediately run to him and called the ambulance. Although there have been some reports about the actor’s condition, he himself had not yet responded. He does that now via Twitter.
“I had a minor heart attack,” he writes. “But it’s going to be okay thanks to Rosa Estrada and the doctors who were able to fix it without surgery… I’m going to take some time to recover but I’ll be back soon.” He also thanked his fans, his friends and his family for their support. “It’s overwhelming. I feel the love and that means so much to me.”
