Veteran actor Anthony Hopkins has been temporarily forced to use a wheelchair after injuring himself on the set of his latest film Slipstream.
The Oscar winner, 68, was shooting a scene that required him to run along a hospital corridor when he slipped over and twisted his leg.
He told Contactmusic: "I was running down the corridor of this hospital in this scene and decided I was 28 instead of what I am. I punish my body, I punish myself. That's what I like about myself. I really give myself a rough time sometimes because I believe in that kind of energy."
