Iconic actor Dick Van Dyke has suffered an injury, forcing him to cancel his new musical show in Los Angeles.

Geffen Playhouse publicist Allison Rawlings released a statement Thursday saying the legendary star -- who turns 85 on Monday -- is unable to perform because of an injury to his Achilles tendon, which began bothering him last week. As a result, the theater was forced to cancel the upcoming run of Dick Van Dyke - Step in Time: A Musical Memoir.

Michael Douglas was snapped looking upbeat and healthy Friday as he left his NYC apartment, and the actor's rep tells RadarOnline.com that Douglas is "getting better."
