Cranston, who played Walter White in the drama series Breaking Bad, made the announcement in a video while he was donating plasma in California.

Cranston said he had experienced mild symptoms including a slight headache, tightness in the chest and loss of his sense of taste and smell.
The video posted to Instagram showed Cranston going through a plasma-donation session, something he decided to do after contracting the virus.
In his post, the actor and director urged people to wear face masks, as the death toll in the United States climbed over 150,000.
"I count my blessings and urge you to keep wearing the damn mask, keep washing your hands, and stay socially distant," he wrote.
"We can prevail — but ONLY if we follow the rules together."
