Charlize Theron hurt on the set of latest film

Actress Charlize Theron has been injured on the set of her latest movie "Aeon Flux", says The Hollywood Reporter.

The project has now been shut down for an infinite number of weeks, says the trade.

Theron had been working in Berlin, where production on "Flux" began Aug. 16. The injury happened while Theron was performing stunts in wire-hanging action, according to unit publicist Jeanmarie Carrasco, quoted in an Associated Press report.

Asked for further detail, Carrasco only would say: "She sustained an injury, and we are closing down for a few weeks so that she can be 100% when she returns. She wasn't hospitalized, but I can't comment on anything specific about her injuries." Carrasco said no cameras were rolling at the time of the incident.

Theron's rep, PMK/HBH's Amanda Silverman, acknowledged that the actress had sustained an injury, saying, "She's resting and hopes to be back to work soon."

According to sources close to the film, Theron hurt her neck while performing stunts on a trampoline late last week. She was taken to a hospital for examination and flew back Tuesday to Los Angeles, where she is expected to meet with her personal doctors to further evaluate the situation.

Because it is anticipated doctors might want to monitor Theron's condition over the next several weeks, the production will not resume for a minimum of six weeks, sources said.

Paramount spokesperson Jasmine Madatian would not comment on the extent of Theron's injury or the exact circumstances under which it occurred. She would not say how long the production could remain shut down. Silverman said, "The time off is still to be determined."
