The Associated Press is reporting injuries to 16 actors on the Toronto set of Resident Evil: Retribution after a platform collapsed. Paramedics found it difficult to assess the actors’ injuries because of the zombie costumes and make-up they were wearing. The victims suffered leg, arm and back injuries but none were said to be life-threatening.
The accident–which happened around 8 a.m. Pacific Time–apparently happened as a platform the actors were standing moved moved just as they were going to another platform. Milla Jojovich plays lead character Alice in the action/horror series, but wasn’t on set when the mishap occurred. The incident’s being investigated by Canada’s Ministry of labour.
