"This Is Spinal Tap star Michael McKean has been hospitalized after being hit by a car. The actor was taken to hospital in critical condition after the accident in Manhattan&amp;#039;s Upper West Side, the New York Daily News reports. McKean&amp;#039;s condition was later upgraded to stable but he has suffered from a broken leg, his publicist Harriet Sternberg said. &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;ll be okay,&amp;quot; Sternberg said. &amp;quot;Hopefully, he&amp;#039;ll be fine. It&amp;#039;s pretty devastating.&amp;quot; Two other people were also taken to hospital after the incident, but officials have said that the extent of their injuries was unknown. McKean&amp;#039;s wife Annette O&amp;#039;Toole has flown in from Los Angeles to be with her husband, who will now miss his performance in the Broadway production of The Best Man tonight. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s the first time he will have ever missed a curtain in his entire life,&amp;quot; Sternberg said. &amp;quot;His understudy has never gone on in 40-plus years.&amp;quot; McKean also starred in the television show Laverne &amp;amp; Shirley, appeared in several episodes of Saturday Night Live, and has starred in movies such as Planes, Trains &amp;amp; Automobiles, Coneheads, Little Nicky, Best In Show and For Your Consideration. He also recently had guest roles in Happy Endings and Homeland. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
