Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber's 21-month old son Sasha had to hospitalized earlier this week, which may explain why the X-Men Origins: Wolverine star was noticeably absent from the Los Angeles premiere of his movie on Tuesday night.

According to People magazine, Sasha, was hospitalized overnight for respiratory issues, but was released Wednesday morning.

"Sasha got home today and is feeling much better after being hospitalized on Tuesday night with respiratory problems," said Schreiber's rep Ina Treciokas.

Liev was scheduled to make an appearance at the movie premiere, but had to fly out to New York from Los Angeles to be with Naomi and his son.

Little Sasha is said to be home now with his family and is doing well. Glad he's feeling better!
Woody Allen has all sorts of stars lined up for his next film. His movies never disappoint, and his next one, which is still untitled, will feature several A-listers.

The latest to be cast in the film is Nicole Kidman. She joins Naomi Watts, Antonio Banderas, Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, and Freida Pinto. Talk about an awesome cast!

Maybe the huge success of Vicky Cristina Barcelona made all these big stars flock to Woody. No plot details have been released yet.

Nicole is one of the busiest women in Hollywood right now. She has many films in the development stage, including The Danish Girl opposite Charlize Theron; Monte Carlo and period film Alexander The Great, co-starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Those all sound like huge movies.

It’s so amazing to see how Nicole has had such staying power in Hollywood. And to think that Nicole recently said that her role in Baz Luhrmann’s Australia might be her last, and that she didn’t want to make films anymore. Looks like she’s still in it for a few more years!

Like many actors in Hollywood, Naomi Watts feels that the late Heath Ledger should receive the Oscar for Supporting Actor.

She dated Heath for a few years before she met Live Schreiber, and was taken aback at what an extraordinary star he was. Naomi is adamant about the Academy giving the Oscar to Heath.

She says, "I hope he does win. He was amazing and his work should be recognized. I always knew it from the time we met on Ned Kelly. When we first rehearsed together I was blown away by his presence and the detail in his performance.

"I just thought, ‘Wow, this guy is extraordinary, he has got something really special.’"

We think the whole world pretty much agrees with Naomi! It’s not only that Heath died either. If he was still alive, we’d want him to win. He made that entire movie worth watching. The fact that he passed away would just make the win even more special.

Brangelina isn't the only couple not rushing to the alter. Naomi Watts and her baby daddy fiance Liev Schreiber have no plans on walking down the aisle anytime soon--because to them marriage is just a piece of paper.

When asked if she has any wedding plans yet, Naomi told reporters: "Liev gave me this beautiful ring. We’re very much together. We just don’t have that certificate and that’s okay with both of us.

"Maybe one day we’ll just wake up and go, ‘Hey, let’s do this.’ And maybe not."

As long as they're committed to each other and being good parents, technically, it really is just a piece of paper. And some couples don't need that kind of validation.

They've already been together for over 4 years and have two sons together, sounds pretty solid to us!

Congrats to Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber who welcomed a baby boy yesterday. This is the second child for the couple. They gave birth to Alexander back in July of 2007.

"I can confirm that she had a baby boy yesterday," their rep confirms. They named the little guy Samuel Kai Schreiber.

Unfortunately, they have yet to release their child's name and we know that's always the interesting part when it comes to celebrities. These two might keep it normal since their first already has a decent name, but we shall see!

Watts and Schreiber met on the set of the 2006 drama The Painted Veil and has been together ever since.
