Ankle Injury
Production on "Iron Man 3" has been suspended after leading man Robert Downey Jr. injured his ankle while performing a stunt. "There will be a short delay in the production schedule while he recuperates," Marvel Studios said Wednesday in a statement regarding the incident which happened on the film's Wilmington, North Carolina, set.
With a budget said to be in the $200-million range, every day Downy Jr. is not working is major money down the drain. The silver lining: It's a Marvel production! With the success of "The Avengers," which has made nearly $1.5 BILLION worldwide, they can afford it. On set injuries are nothing new to Hollywood.
Hurt Head and Foot
Halle Berry reportedly suffered a minor head injury this summer while she was shooting a fight sequence for her upcoming film "The Hive." Her rep said she was taken to the hospital "as a precaution." Apparently Berry is a bit accident prone: She suffered a broken foot last year at her rented villa on a day off from production of the upcoming "Cloud Atlas."
Hand then Foot
Production in London came to a halt on "Snow White and the Huntsman" when Kristen Stewart injured her hand last year. Stewart also reportedly suffered a puncture wound to her foot during reshoots of the upcoming "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 2."
