Bryan Cranston is setting off alarm bells with his post asking for prayers for his buddy Bob Odenkirk.

“My friend, Bob Odenkirk collapsed last night on the set of Better Call Saul. He is in the hospital in Albuquerque and receiving the medical attention he needs but his condition is not known to the public as yet," he continued.
Ending his emotional message, Cranston asked his 3.1 million followers to "please take a moment in your day today to think about him and send positive thoughts and prayers his way, thank you.”
Cranston doesn't often post about his personal life on social media. His dedication to Odenkirk's condition is making fans of the star wary.
