The site added that the 58-year-old New York-based actor was able to move about fine during his stay.<\/p>\n

Daily Mail has reached out to his rep for comment.<\/p>\n

Schreiber made his breakthrough in the 1996 movie Scream. His more recent credits are The Perfect Couple and Caught Stealing.<\/p>\n

The San Francisco native is married to Taylor Neisen; they met in 2017, married in July 2023, and had their first child, a daughter named Hazel Bee, in August 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ray Donovan star Liev Schreiber checked into a hospital on Sunday after suffering a dramatic headache. The ex-partner of Naomi Watts spent the night at the hospital under doctor’s orders and on Monday went through a ‘battery of tests’ according to TMZ; Pictured in February 2016<\/p>\n

Schreiber recently revealed why he became an actor in\u00a0an interview with Italian publication IO Donna.<\/p>\n

He said: ‘As a child, I was fascinated by clowns and enjoyed entertaining my family. My mother was a bit of a hippie; she placed more importance on art than money: she was a taxi driver, and as soon as she had some, she’d spend it on taking us to the movies or the theatre.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

Liev insisted his grandfather Alex – who emigrated to America from Ukraine and played the cello – was more of an influence and inspiration for him to go into acting than his dad, Tell Schreiber, who was an actor and theatre director.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked what influence Tell had on him, Liev said: ‘Perhaps I was more inspired by the circus, where my grandfather took me. ‘At the exit, they sold little swords for children, and I remember playing with them in front of Madison Square Garden, thinking about The Legend of Robin Hood with Errol Flynn.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘My parents separated when I was four, and I grew up mostly with my mother, who was a bit of a hippie socialist who even lived in squats; artistic education was more important than anything else. We went to a movie theatre on Eighth Street where they showed old black-and-white films, but I think I appreciated them more as I grew older.’<\/p>\n

Schreiber – who has vivid memories of watching films starring Charlie Chaplin and the Marx Brothers with his mother – is dad to daughter Hazel, his child with wife Taylor Neisen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The star is enjoying being a father in his 50s and says children give you a solid grounding when you work in Hollywood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Hollywood actor – who has two teenage children from his relationship with actress Watts – said: ‘I could have had a more relaxed life, but with a small child, you have to provide stability, respect sleep and meal times. Children keep you grounded.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘When I had my first two, who are now 17 and 18, it was a strange time: my ex and I were the center of attention, and success can make you lose your sense of reality. Children bring you back to what’s truly important.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
