Crew members injured in crash on set of Eddie Murphy movie 'The Pickup'
Several crew members were injured and two were hospitalized when a car and truck collided during shooting of the Eddie Murphy film “The Pickup” from Amazon MGM Studios, the studio and a person close to the production said Tuesday.
A studio spokesperson said in a statement to The Associated Press that the scene that led to Saturday’s accident in Georgia had been rehearsed and all safety precautions were taken.
Neither Murphy nor the film’s other stars, including Keke Palmer and Pete Davidson, were on the set at the time.
The injuries ranged from bumps and bruises to broken bones, the person close to the production said. Two crew members were taken to the hospital, and one remained hospitalized Tuesday. All are expected to make a full recovery.
The accident happened on a location outside of Atlanta when a truck locked up and hit a car, the person said.
