After falling on her upcoming movie Lee set, Kate Winslet was transported to a nearby hospital for observation. The incident occurred while filming in Croatia. Representatives for the award-winning actor have since provided an update on her condition.
“Kate slipped and was taken to hospital as a precautionary measure required by the production. She is fine and will be filming, as planned, this week,” according to the statement given to Deadline.
Winslet has been tapped to play Lee Miller in the upcoming film of the same name. Miller was a war correspondent during WWII. The relationship between photographer and subject will be the focus of this historical drama, helmed by Ellen Kuras and stars Marion Cotillard, Jude Law, Andrea Riseborough, and Josh O’Connor.
Miller was famous for his work documenting the war on the allied front lines. He also exposed all of the atrocities that Hitler’s Nazi Germany committed against the Jewish community.
“This is absolutely not a biopic,” Winslet told Deadline about the project in 2021. “To make a story about Lee’s whole life, that’s a series worth for HBO. What we wanted to do was find the most interesting decade in her life, the one that defined who she was and what she became because of what she went through. It was the period from 1938-1948 that took her right through the war and her most defining time. That is the story we want people to know about Lee more than the many other parts of her life.”
