Actress Halle Berry was rushed to the hospital Tuesday night after being injured on the set of her latest movie.

TMZ reports that Berry hit her head on concrete after taking a terrible fall around 10 p.m.
The actress, 45, was transported to Los Angeles’ Cedars Sinai Medical Center by ambulance.

In a statement, Berry’s representative updated USA Today and said the actress is fine. “Halle Berry suffered a minor head injury while shooting a fight sequence on the set of her film, The Hive. She was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but checked out healthy and was released. She’ll continue as planned.”

The Hive also stars Jennifer Hudson’s fiance, David Otunga, and Abigail Breslin.

This isn’t the actress’ first on-set mishap. Last year she broke her foot while filming Cloud Atlas and back in 2003 she broke her arm while shooting Gothika.
