Verne Troyer, who is best known for playing Mini Me in the “Austin Powers” films, is on the mend after suffering a seizure at the Heart of Texas Comic Con in Waco, Texas.
“I’m sure you guys have heard some news that I went to the hospital,” the actor said in a video posted late Saturday on Twitter. “But I just want to reassure you and let everybody know that I’m doing fine. I was there for maybe a couple of hours, did some tests and now I’m here at the hotel.”
Troyer promised in the video that he would return to the HeartofTx convention on Sunday.
