Set Injuries
For his role in the film “Se7en,” Brad Pitt played the character Detective Mills. Detective Mills and Detective Somerset (played by Morgan Freeman) were hunting a killer motivated to murder by the seven deadly sins. During the filming of “Se7en,” Pitt actually injured his hand when he was asked to smash a windshield in one of the scenes.
The injury sounds pretty severe, with director David Fincher recalling how he could see the bone in Pitt’s hand! Filmmakers worked to incorporate the injury into the plot but had to reshoot some previously filmed scenes for continuity. Many of these reshoots required Pitt to act with his injured hand in his pocket.
