Dennis Hopper is “feeling much better” after being released from hospital.

The Hollywood legend was rushed to a New York medical center by ambulance Wednesday after he began complaining of stomach problems. The 73-year-old star was wheeled into the hospital wearing an oxygen mask.

Hopper’s manager, Sam Maydew, said the Easy Rider star was treated for dehydration after showing severe flu-like symptoms.

Dennis was in New York to promote his new TV show Crash, which is a new version of the 2004 Oscar-winning movie about racial and social tensions in Los Angeles in which he plays music producer Ben Cendars.

Maydew said Hopper was grateful for the good wishes he had received and looked forward to getting back to work on Crash.

Due to his illness, the actor has been forced to cancel a number of interviews and appearances on TV.

Dennis is known for his prolific film career, having starred in almost 200 movies including Apocalypse Now, Blue Velvet and Rebel Without A Cause.
