Robert Duvall looked as healthy as the horse he rode in on ... at a "Lonesome Dove" reunion Thursday ... despite reports he'd suffered a stroke.

Several news outlets reported Duvall, 85, had gone MIA the last 7 months following a health scare. But his rep, Jim Dobson, tells TMZ the stroke thing is 100% false, and the pics from the reunion in Fort Worth prove it.

The real deal -- we're told Duvall's been in Florida with his wife, Luciana, for the last 4 months ... and he's working on casting a new film in which he'll also star.

Bobby D. hung with ex 'Lonesome' co-stars Danny Glover and Ricky Schroder at the reunion, and also gave a speech to honor the classic TV mini-series.

Jessica Simpson made a lot of jaws drop when she popped up in Mexico, back in her Daisy Dukes -- but the OG Bo Duke was not among them.

We got John Schneider at LAX, and he immediately sides with his ex co-star Catherine Bach as the only true DD.

Check out the 'Dukes of Hazzard' star's reaction when he saw the pic of Jessica on vacay. He's not saying Jessica's NOT hot, but it's clear who HE thinks is hotter.

Will Smith looked like he was standing next to a mirror on the set of his new movie ... sorta.

Will's shooting "Collateral Beauty" in NYC, and his body double was sticking close during filming -- ready to step in when the star needs a break.

For once, Zac Efron and The Rock's bulging muscles were NOT front and center on the set of "Baywatch" ... 'cause it was time for Kelly Rohrbach to shine.

Yeah, Zac's in the shot too -- but Kelly's the one providing the flotation during the rescue scene they shot Thursday in Georgia.

Much like the kid they're saving, Kelly's swimsuit is holding on for dear life.

Henry Cavill is laughing at all the critics who ripped his movie -- because sweet justice prevailed over the weekend at the box office.

Cavill was all smiles coming out of LAX ... and for good reason -- "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" raked in more than $400 million worldwide on opening weekend.

The numbers gotta be even sweeter, since the movie earned sour reviews, still ... 4th biggest opening weekend ever.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson just got tagged for an accident their son, Chet Haze, had while driving mom and dad's car.

According to a new lawsuit filed against the celebs ... Chet rear-ended a guy named Terry Moogan in February 2015, while driving Tom and Rita's Chevy. Moogan accuses Chet of driving recklessly and being "under the influence of drugs and or alcohol at the time."

Moogan says Chet's parents should be responsible since they negligently handed him the keys.

As for the drugs and alcohol allegation ... Chet didn't get a DUI for this accident, in fact cops weren't even on scene. Moogan's attorneys claim Chet begged him not to call the police at the time.

In the suit, Moogan says he suffered injuries ... though he's not specific. His attorneys claim Moogan got whiplash and a brain injury from hitting his head on the dashboard.

David Hasselhoff was back on the "Baywatch" beach ... teachin' the youngins a thing or 2 about fake lifeguarding.

The 63-year-old showed up on the set Tuesday in Savannah, Georgia, giving pointers to The Rock on how to properly jog on the beach, before sitting down to enjoy a couple of ice cold beers.

The Hoff jawboned it with Zac Efron ... then took pics with a random couple who got married on the sand.

Melissa McCarthy looks gooooood!!!

Reese Witherspoon will never have another birthday celebrating her 30's, but her big 4-0 was pretty epic.

Reese had #40 at Warwick in Hollywood Saturday night, and lots of celebs showed up, including Taylor Swift, Elizabeth Banks, Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman, Kate Hudson, Jason Bateman, Toby McGuire and Zoe Kravitz.

Reese turns 40 March 22nd.

Elle Fanning has scored a sweet payday for her role in Ben Affleck's next directorial effort.

Fanning will pull in $250,000 for playing Loretta Figgis in the movie, "Live by Night." The paperwork was filed with an L.A. County judge, who must approve the contract because she's only 17.

Fanning can make extra if the movie does really well at the worldwide box office -- she'll get an additional $75k if the flick pulls in $300 million, and an additional $100k if it tops $400 mil.

Rian Johnson is as cold-blooded as Boba Fett ... so claims his ex-agent who says the director axed him right before he signed on to direct "Star Wars: Episode VIII" ... just to dodge the bill.

Brian Dreyfuss claims in a new lawsuit he took on Johnson as a client before the guy ever directed a single film ... even getting his own dad to invest in Johnson's debut flick, "Brick."

Dreyfuss claims his deal with Johnson called for him to get 10% of any project he helped Johnson land.

According to the suit, Kathleen Kennedy from Lucasfilm hit up Dreyfuss in January 2014 to gauge Johnson's interest in working together. Dreyfuss says Johnson declined the meeting.

Two months later, Dreyfuss claims Johnson fired him out of the blue. In August of 2014 ... Johnson announced he was writing and directing 'Episode VIII.'

Dreyfuss is suing Johnson for the 10% he believes he's owed for 'Star Wars.'

Dylan O'Brien -- the star of the 'Maze Runner' movies -- was severely injured in an accident on the set of the new movie ... and has suffered multiple broken bones .... TMZ has learned.

Sources on the set tell us the 24-year-old -- who plays Thomas in the hugely successful franchise -- was filming a scene for "Maze Runner: The Death Cure" involving a car ... when something went wrong and he was run over.

We're told O'Brien was rushed to a hospital in British Columbia with "severe injuries" -- where he is currently undergoing treatment.

A spokesperson for 20th Century Fox tells us production will shut down while Dylan recovers.

Story developing ...

Emmy winning actor Larry Drake, who famously played Benny on "L.A. Law" died Thursday ... TMZ has learned.

We're told Larry had some health problems lately, related to his weight, but nothing acute or terminal ... as far as his rep knew. Sources on scene tell us Larry was found in his Hollywood home by a friend, who called paramedics around 1:30 PM.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Larry won two consecutive Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor for "L.A. Law" in '88 and '89. He also starred in the 1990 cult classic, "Darkman."

Larry had dropped out of movies and TV in recent years, but we're told he was an acting coach.

He was 66.

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson got a makeover for his most prized possession ... the iconic 'A-Team' van, and says it's finally worthy of a viewing from Mr. T himself.

Producers hooked up the ex-UFC champ after he played B.A. Baracus ... gifting him the van he and the crew mobbed around in for the 2010 'A-Team' flick. We're told it had been sitting in a garage for years and the paint job was jacked.

Enter the guys at L.A. Street Customs -- we're told Rampage took his baby to their shop in North Hollywood to make it presentable again. Check out the unveiling. Luckily for everyone involved ... Rampage seems happy.

No need to pity a fool ... this time.

Former NFL running back Ahman Green has been cut again ... this time it's from the upcoming 'Batman v Superman' blockbuster ... but don't fear, you could still see the Packers great on-screen.

Green is a huge DC comics fan and 'BvS' director Zach Snyder is a huge Packers fan so when Green hit him up and asked for a spot in the movie ... all things were a go.

Ahman shot his scenes as "Thug No. 2" a few months ago but he tells TMZ Sports his hopes were crushed recently when he got a fateful call from a honcho on the film.

"It’s all a part of Hollywood, but I got a call from the casting director explaining that my scene was cut from the theatrical release of the movie."

All bad right? Not so much ... Green tells us he will still indeed make an appearance in the movie (kinda) ... and actually hopes to make a return to the series in the future.

"I’ll still be in the Director’s Cut when that comes out ... I have a good relationship with Zack Snyder, so we’ll definitely stay in touch for future releases like 'Justice League.'”

Shooter McGavin took a page out of Happy Gilmore's playbook by giving a hot bikini clad comic swinging lessons ... on the green.

Christopher McDonald, who played the sleazy golf pro in the Adam Sandler flick, showed up at a $10 million hole in one tournament in Las Vegas. He didn't win the tournament, but it's hard to say he lost -- based on his interaction with Kate Quigley.

Still, nice to see Shooter finding his happy place ... just like Happy.
