Til Schweiger is in hospital in Mallorca with blood poisoning. The 60-year-old has been suffering from an open wound on his leg since August.
Schweiger hopes to be able to fly to New York soon to attend the premiere of the new Guy Ritchie film “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare,” in which he is starring. But the doctors haven't given their okay yet. A major investigation is still scheduled for Saturday. At the moment it doesn't look like there's any improvement. “I haven’t given up hope that it could work,’ says Schweiger. The film star can always rely on his children. Even in the midst of all the allegations against him, Luna Schweiger stood by him. Now the actor wants to concentrate on his career again. However, his health is thwarting his plans. Last year he sustained an injury to his leg - which now has fatal consequences. ‘I hit my shin at the time and germs got in there. Now I have an 'open leg', that's what they call it. Unfortunately, it kept getting worse," said the actor.
