BROCKTON, MASS. (WHDH) - Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence was reportedly injured while on set of a Netflix film in Massachusetts.
TMZ is reporting that Lawrence was hit in the face and eye with glass while filming on set for the movie “Don’t Look Up” around 1 a.m. Friday when a controlled explosion went wrong.
Production was shut down for the rest of the day.
Cris Paolino owns an auto shop nearby and has had a front-row seat to shooting for the last couple of days.
“We got to see her the day before, she was walking around checking out the stage all that, probably getting ready I’m assuming,” he said. “We also got to see her yesterday here. We go to see when they were videotaping ontop of the roof.”
Lawrence along with stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothee Chalamet have been spotted around the Boston area shooting the movie, which is set to be released later this year.
People in Brockton wished the star a speedy recovery and grateful for the experience to watch the movie come to life.
I’m happy they chose Brockton to bring the film I think it brings a lot of positive impact to the city,” Paolino said.
The extent of Lawrence’s injuries is unknown at this time.
