Anthony Anderson shared on Thursday that he spent the night in the emergency after a “movie set fight” went awry.
The Black-ish star took to Instagram and shared a photo of himself lying on a gurney. The 53-year-old actor is smiling and flashing the peace sign as he’s decked in Lakers gear. In the caption, Anderson shared what went down in Cape Town, South Africa, on the set of his upcoming new movie, G20.
“Me against two goons and a chair!” he wrote. “Guess who didn’t win! Who needs a stuntman? Me that’s who! I’m not as young as I used to be! CT scan and X-rays showed nothing fractured or broken in my back just a deep contusion. That chair will never be the same though! Bloodied and bowed but never broken!”
For good measure, Anderson also shared a photo of the chair that got the better of him.
“This is the chair that whooped my a** last night!” he captioned the post. “Something about it is menacing! It sucker punched me in the kidneys and back with no mercy! When I got on set today it was grinning at me! Little does he know I got something for that a**! He gone learn today!”
A mere 16 days after hosting the Primetime Emmys, Anderson’s across the world filming G20, an action thriller directed by Patricia Riggen and written by Logan and Noah Miller. The film centers around terrorists taking over the G20 Summit, the annual conference that brings together leaders from 20 of the world’s largest economies to discuss global policy on trade, health, climate and other issues.
The film also stars Viola Davis and Antony Starr. Production, which had been delayed due to the Hollywood strike, began last month.
