Actor Bob Odenkirk is in a "stable" condition after suffering a "heart-related incident" and collapsing on the set of his TV show Better Call Saul.

TMZ reported yesterday that Odenkirk, 58, and fellow cast members were shooting on the Sony Lot in Culver City, Los Angeles Tuesday when the incident happened.

He reportedly collapsed, with crew members immediately calling an ambulance.

"We can confirm Bob is in stable condition after experiencing a heart-related incident," representatives for the actor said in a statement released to NBC News today.

"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."

Odenkirk's son, Nate Odenkirk, also shared an update on his father's condition on social media.

He's going to be okay.

Law enforcement told TMZ that they got the call at 11:34am for the medical emergency.

It's unclear whether or not Odenkirk was conscious when he was transported in the ambulance.

Comedian Tim Heidecker and other fans have tweeted their support for the star after hearing the news.
