It seems as if the intense fight choreography for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is now starting to take its toll, especially on the fragile humans playing the vampires.
Just two weeks after reporting a story on star Ashley Greene getting "battered and bruised on set," MTV Movies wrote that Jackson Rathbone was taken to the hospital on Tuesday after suffering an unspecified injury while on set. A rep for Summit Entertainment spoke with the press, saying that the injury was not serious.
Actor Jackson Rathbone of The Twilight Saga movies was slightly injured yesterday [September 22] during a fight scene rehearsal. As a precaution, he was driven to the hospital and checked out by a doctor.... He's fine and is back at work on the set of Eclipse today.
Greene told MTV that despite the pain, it's all for the good of the movie.
It's going really smoothly. It's going really well.... We're all working really hard and learning how to kick butt. I don't know if you've seen recent pictures, but I have bruises all over my body. It's those wires. It looks like a hand mark on my arm, and it's definitely from wires.
