Actor Owen Wilson is in a California hospital being treated for a suspected suicide attempt, according to reports.

 

Gossip website PerezHilton.com quoted National Enquirer editor-in-chief David Perel: "Owen Wilson has now been transferred from St. John's to another Los Angeles area hospital. His brothers Andrew and Luke are with him.

 

"Andrew found him after the suicide attempt and called an ambulance. Both of Owen's wrists were slashed superficially and Owen had taken an overdose of pills.

 

"Owen was found with a nearly empty bottle of pills next to him. He was at his house in Santa Monica."

 

Another gossip website TMZ.com said it had confirmed that a call to Santa Monica police overnight was for Wilson, who starred in Zoolander and Wedding Crashers.

 

The department would not reveal the subject of a media release but said the person was taken to hospital for treatment.

 

 

I didn't see any thread about this so I hope there isn't...And feel free to move it to Movie/Cinema Discussion if need be

whoa thats shocking...i wonder if his separation with kate hudson had anything to do with it??

Bloody hell, he has been in a lot of films I like, shows money don't bring happiness

 

Hope he pulls through

I find him one of the least funny and entertaining of all the new breed - but this is awful news.
