According to a report from Entertainment Weekly, the former Bond girl Eva Green was rushed to the hospital after sustaining an injury while filming the Addams Family spinoff.
While no further details have been revealed about the nature of the injury, and representatives for Green and Netflix declined to comment, The Sun reported that the incident took place earlier this month in the middle of filming Wednesday season 3 near Dublin, Ireland. Production had been postponed, and filming had to be rescheduled after the incident.
"This was really nasty," a production source told the outlet, "Eva sustained an injury and was clearly in pain, and producers were taking no chances. Medics were called, and Eva went to the hospital. She underwent treatment and is now recovering well."
Filming has since resumed in County Wicklow, keeping the Netflix production on track.
What Fans Can Expect from Eva Green's Official Debut on the Netflix Series
Now, even if details about Green's sustained injury and treatment were kept in the dark, this only means one thing for what fans can expect in Wednesday season 3: things have never been more intense outside of Wednesday Addams' journey in Nevermore Academy.
Prior to the scary setback, Green had never made her excitement about joining the franchise as Wednesday's aunt, Ophelia, clear: "I'm thrilled to join the woefully twisted world of Wednesday as Aunt Ophelia," the Dirty Angels star said, "This show is such a deliciously dark and witty world, I can't wait to bring my own touch of cuckoo-ness to the Addams family."
Aunt Ophelia is the enigmatic and wonderfully eccentric sister of Morticia Addams (Catherine Zeta-Jones). She was first teased as the writer behind the ominous warning, "Wednesday must die" on a wall, triggering Wednesday's dark psychic visions in season 2.
Even series creators, showrunners, and writers Al Gough and Miles Millar couldn't wait to get behind the camera to work with her: "Eva Green has always brought an exhilarating, singular presence to the screen – elegant, haunting, and beautifully unpredictable. Those qualities make her the perfect choice for Aunt Ophelia. We're excited to see how she transforms the role and expands Wednesday's world."
Expect Aunt Ophelia to excavate some long-rotting Addams family secrets and bring plenty of supernatural friction when season 3 finally makes its way to our screens.
Wednesday season 3 is currently in development and is expected to premiere on Netflix sometime in 2027. Stay tuned!
