Kevin Spacey revealed he was rushed to the hospital over a possible heart attack earlier this week.
"I experienced something here today that was unexpected," the actor announced while speaking at the 15th Tashkent International Film Festival in Uzbekistan this week.
While visiting a museum in Samarkand, he explained, "I was looking at these extraordinary murals on the walls and I suddenly felt my entire left arm go numb for about eight seconds, and I shook it off, but I immediately told the people I was with what had just happened, and on their advice, we went immediately to the… medical center."

He said he spent most of the afternoon there undergoing a "variety of tests," including an MRI.
"Everything turned out to be completely normal, and I am of course grateful it's not anything more serious," he added in the speech, captured on video shared by The Sun.

The Sun reported the actor was taken to the Innova Diagnostic Clinic to undergo a series of tests after the incident.
The incident happened on Monday. More information about his current condition is not known, but it appears to be a good sign that he was able to attend the film festival as planned.
Representatives for Spacey did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment Wednesday.
KEVIN SPACEY GOT AWAY WITH HIS SEXUAL ASSAULTS BECAUSE OF HIS CELEBRITY STATUS: PROSECUTORS
Spacey was at the film festival to host a masterclass for aspiring filmmakers, and the event was one of the first after his London sexual assault trial that took place in July.

In the trial, four men alleged that Spacey had assaulted them. These incidents took place between 2001 and 2013, and the men all claimed that the actor had groped them against their will. One alleged that he performed oral sex on him while he was unconscious.

Spacey was found not guilty of all charges.
Spacey first faced allegations of sexual misconduct when actor Anthony Rapp came forward in 2017. Rapp accused Spacey of assaulting him at a party in the 1980s. Spacey was found not liable in Rapp's civil lawsuit.

He's kept a bit of a low profile since those original allegations, though just before the London trial, he did make an interesting comment to Germany's Zeit magazine.
"In 10 years, it won’t mean anything," he said. "My work will live longer than I will, and that’s what will be remembered. There are people right now who are ready to hire me the moment I am cleared of these charges in London."
