Moranis’ management team says he’s fine and is grateful for everyone’s thoughts and well wishes.
Video shows the suspect wearing an “I Love New York” shirt.
Moranis, who starred in “Honey I Shrunk the Kids” and “Ghostbusters,” has been off the big screen for years to focus on his children after his wife’s passing, but recently appeared in a Mint Mobile commercial with Ryan Reynolds.
Reynolds tweeted Friday:
Should have known not to subject Rick to the year 2020. Glad to hear he’s okay.
