Tim Curry is recovering from a stroke.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show star is said to be "doing fine" and recuperating at his home in Los Angeles following a collapse last night.
His long-time agent Marcia Hurwitz - whose two sons were once mistaken for being his - has dismissed claims the stroke has affected the 67-year-old actor's speech and insists the star is in good spirits.
She told the MailOnline website: "Tim is doing great. He absolutely can speak and is recovering at this time and in great humour."
Curry- who has never been married and kept his personal life under wraps - previously suffered a health scare in 2011, forcing him to pull out of a production of Rosencrantz and Gildenstern are Dead in Chichester and London due to debilitating asthma attacks after a chest infection.
