Burt Reynolds has been admitted to intensive care for treatment for severe flu and dehydration.
Sky News reports that the 76-year-old, who is famous for roles in Boogie Nights, Smokey and the Bandit and Deliverance, was rushed to a Florida hospital after falling ill.
Reynolds's representative Erik Kritzer told CNN that the star was "severely dehydrated" when he was admitted to hospital. He also said that Reynolds had requested the name of the medical facility be kept "private".
He continued: "He is doing better at this time. We expect as soon as he gets more fluids, he will be back in a regular room."
Reynolds underwent a quintuple heart bypass procedure in 2010. In 2009, he received treatment for a prescription drug addiction.
The actor last appeared on screen in an episode of animated comedy Archer in 2012 and will star in Standby with Emmanuelle Chriqui and Seinfeld's Jason Alexander.
I hope he gets well soon:).
