Efron was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure and was released on Saturday morning. “He is fine,” the rep told People.

Efron’s reps did not respond to Variety’s request for comment. TMZ was the first to report Efron’s hospitalization.

While vacationing in Spain, the “Iron Claw” star attended DJ Martin Garrix’s concert at the Ushuaïa Ibiza Hotel and Beach Club. Videos were shared on social media of Efron joining Garrix on stage and hyping up the crowd.

Efron’s most recent credits include the Netflix film “A Family Affair,” “Ricky Stanicky,” “The Greatest Beer Run Ever” and “The Iron Claw.”
