Mission: Impossible Star Collapses at LA Restaurant

Ving Rhames is back home after a midmeal collapse sent him to a Los Angeles hospital on Wednesday. The Mission: Impossible actor was dining with family in North Hollywood when a bystander says he went down at the table, report TMZ and USA Today. The Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed that paramedics responded around 1:40pm and took a 66-year-old man for treatment to a local hospital. By Wednesday evening, Rhames had been released and was heading home, his manager Brad Kramer tells Variety.

Kramer said Rhames was feeling OK, sounded like himself, and even joked on the phone. The manager suggested that the episode may have been caused by overheating, per USA Today. Rhames is the only Mission: Impossible regular besides Tom Cruise to appear in all eight films, as character Luther Stickell. The actor, whose credits also include Pulp Fiction and Jacob's Ladder, has multiple projects in the works, including The Mongoose and Painter, per Variety.
