Contacted by “Variety”, Ving Rhames’ agent wanted to be reassuring and assured that the actor was “on his way home” and was doing better, after the tests at the hospital: “He had his usual voice and even made a joke on the phone,” said his manager, Brad Kramer.

Ving Rhames, who notably played in “Pulp Fiction”, is the only actor, besides Tom Cruise, to appear in the eight films of the “Mission Impossible” saga in which he plays the computer hacker Luther Stickell.
