While the actor is now back to his LA pad, he and wife Rita are observing social-distancing like the rest of America.

He further thanked all the Australia staff for taking such good care of them and making their return to the US possible. From Tom Hanks To Mikel Arteta, Celebrities And Politicians Not Spared The Coronavirus Bug.
