Halle Berry Breaks Arm on Gothika Set

X2 Actress Halle Berry has broken her arm on the Mo
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) — Actress Halle Berry has broken her arm on the Montreal set of her upcoming film Gothika, but she will be back on the job next week, a Warner Bros. spokesman said today.

The Academy Award-winning actress, who plays a criminal psychologist in the supernatural thriller, was injured on Wednesday while shooting a physically demanding scene, Warner Bros. spokesman Joe Everett said.

Several of Berry's co-stars, who include Robert Downey Jr., Penélope Cruz, and Lord of the Rings actor Bernard Hill, were on the set at the time, but it's not clear who else was in the scene with her. "It wasn't a stunt scene, it was just one of the physical scenes in a movie," Everett said. "Her arm didn't go the way it was supposed to."

Berry, 32, was taken by ambulance to a Montreal hospital, where she was treated for a broken ulna — the bone that extends from the elbow to the wrist — and released, Everett said.

The producers, Robert Zemeckis and Joel Silver, shut down filming until next Tuesday and were determining how to shoot around Berry's arm cast, he said.

About four weeks of filming remain in the nine-week production schedule.

Gothika is due out on October 24.
