Warning: Some images of blood.
As the movie is independently produced, it has an agreement with SAG-AFTRA to keep shooting in Savannah, Georgia amid the ongoing strikes. The action-comedy movie is reportedly about a “badass secret agent Sam (Wilson) who has been tasked with one of her hardest missions yet – being a Maid of Honor for her childhood best friend.”
Last Thursday, Rebel took to Instagram to share that she had been hospitalized and had three stitches after a “stunt accident at 4 a.m.”
In a new video posted onto her Instagram story on Aug. 9, Rebel went into further detail on what happened. “Thank you for all your well wishes. I’ve actually been healing, quite amazing. The stitches have dissolved out from my on-set accident last week,” she began.
“In the middle of the night shoot, my last scene of the movie — so I had done all these kick-arse fight sequences — I got hit in the face with the butt of a gun. It was a complete accident and such a shock,” she continued.
“Luckily, I’m healing very well so I wanted to say thank you for everybody’s well wishes. I hopefully will be totally fine. It was really fun to do an action movie, but it can be a bit dangerous at times,” she added.
Wishing Rebel a swift recovery!
