Glenn Close left fans worried after she shared an emotional video of her 'watching the sun go down' at her home.
The actor, 79, took to Instagram to share a sweet video from her home in Bozeman, Montana, at the end of a day.
Appearing slightly breathless, she told the camera: "Hi everyone, I’m home.
"Calming down, wearing my mama’s shirt, letting the wind blow through my white hair. Watching the sun go down. I feel blessed. Hi to you all. Bye."
She added in the caption that her beloved Havanese dog, Pip, was right behind her at the time.
Fans were quick to flood the comments, with some worrying about the actor, writing: "Girl get in the house we gotta keep you safe," and: "So glad you’re home safe, Glenn! Thanks for the update. Lots of love."
Others added: "Glen. It’s not the time for you to be doing too much now… we can’t lose you too!" and: "Glenn Close you better be safe you know we love you girl stay somewhere safe and calm. We need you good."
Another commented: "Glenn get behind us because this year is really pushing our nerves, enough is enough. We love you."
Someone else pointed out the breathing, writing: "Ummm…you’re breathing a little too heavy for us Glenn. Go sit down and stay inside please. Do it for us."
The response comes after the news broke that Dolly Parton had died at the age of 80 following a private battle with cancer, shortly followed by the news of Tim Curry's death a day later.
Glenn was recently announced as an honorary Oscar winner, and will be among the honorees at the 17th Governors Awards which will be held on November 15.
The star has previously been nominated for eight Academy Awards for acting but has never won, which is the most of any living performer without a win.
On June 10, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ Board of Governors announced that she, along with Sir Ridley Scott and animator Floyd Norman, will receive Academy Honorary Awards.
Academy President Lynette Howell Taylor said in a statement: "Throughout her extraordinary body of work, Glenn Close’s unparalleled emotional range has brought to life some of the most complex characters in cinema."
Addressing the number of times she's been nominated for an Oscar without a win during Variety‘s Actors on Actors with Pete Davidson in 2021, she told him "it might be cool to never get" an Oscar statue.
She joked: "Is it better to be wheeled out in a wheelchair and get the lifetime achievement award? You don’t have to make a speech."
