(From IMDB) (http://www.imdb.com/news/ni0554508/)
Leon star Jean Reno has been rushed to hospital after suffering a serious heart attack, according to reports.

The 60-year-old was on holiday on the Caribbean island of St Barts with his wife Zofia Borucka when he was taken ill on Thursday.

The couple had been staying at the home of French singer Johnny Hallyday.

Reno was airlifted to Fort-de-France hospital. No further details on his condition were available as WENN went to press.

Get well soon Jean! I know this may not be a big deal, but he is one of my favorite actors that I care about!

*Update Thanks to ilovemovies for the follow up! He's just fine: http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20220554,00.html

Damn. I love this man's work. He's such a great dramatic actor as well a great funny showman. I hope he recovers fast. I would hate to see the world lose a great actor.

Ah damn... I was looking at his IMDB page and this caught my eye:

Turned down the role of Agent Smith in the The Matrix (1999) to do Godzilla

fuck. this sucks. I like him. I hope he does get better. Maybe he went down the road of dangerous and ended up like this. I mean, the dude is probably going to have to cut back on a bunch of stuff now.

It figures his own heart would try to do him in; you certainly can't kill Jean Reno with anything conventional.

In all seriousness, my hopes for a speedy recovery go out to the guy.

Heart attacks are not cool. I hope he pulls through. Big fan of his. He was one of the only good things about Godzilla. His "american accent" was hysterical.

NOOOOOO. I am still hoping for a Leon sequel with both him and Portman back in action!

SPOILERS FOR LEON (AKA THE PROFESSIONAL)!!!







Kind of impossible considering that he dies at the end of the movie.

Get well soon Jean.

He was (obviously) awesome in Leon, but let's not forget his great supporting turn in Ronin. The man's a great actor and here's hoping he'll be alright.

Yeah, Ronin is my favorite movie of his.

I bet the report confused the hell out of him.

Leon and Ronin still cool.

Well yay! Don't you just love when people make a huge deal out of nothing! I'm glad he's okay! I updated the thread and changed the title... It sounds kinda funny. :p

Encheladas are one of my favorite foods but unfortunately they do give me heartburn.

When I drink like 4 or 5 of those girly Smirnoff Ice beers, they give me the worst heartburn EVER.

Thank god for Tums.

Prevacid!

thats all you need! I havnt had heart burn in years cuz of this sweet sweet pill!

still pretty comical that they all were like he had a serious heart attack and it wound up just being he was having some heart burn!

ah...so thats what thats about......:D

coming into this thread, thinking it was something ridiculous, i had to do a double take on the thread title, because a heart attack and heartburn are in 2 polar opposite directions. thanks for throwing me (if not others) a good zinger ;)

I would like to see him in a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie if they make one. Anyone who can play a likable Fenchman is OK in my book. Just a great actor.

Works for me, but I really like Barbossa and Gibbs and Jack the Monkey. Still leaves room for Reno

I was thinking in flashback form of some sort....although he may have aged too much by now....maybe he could do a voiceover?

Watch out for that.

Used to happen to my sister a lot...those alcopop type drinks...then one day she collapsed in agony and it turned out she had kidney stones and problems with her liver not draining properly.

Not to worry you or anything...:), I'm sure it's simply indigestion/heartburn.

I'm glad Reno is dandy.

Cheers to my favorite non-American actor not being in the hospital!
