Halle Berry hurt on film set

Actress Halle Berry was taken to hospital after an accident with a piece of set equipment while filming a running scene for Catwoman but she is now back at work, production spokesman Joe Everett said in Vancouver.

The accident was quite minor, Everett said, denying reports that the Oscar-winning actress was hit in the head with a microphone boon and spent six hours in a hospital waiting room.

“She had to manoeuvre past a piece of equipment, a set piece and she didn’t quite run past it, but she’s just fine,” he said. “She was taken to hospital, treated and released and was now back at work.”

Berry broke her arm last year while shooting Gothica in Montreal and injured her eye on the set of Die Another Day.
