“Oppenheimer<\/a>” and “The Virgin Suicides” actor Josh Hartnett<\/a> is back to work following a car accident in Canada.<\/p>\n

Hartnett, who starred in M. Night Shyamalan<\/a>‘s 2024 film “Trap<\/a>,” was a passenger in a vehicle that collided with a patrol vehicle for the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary, the local police department said on Thursday, Sept. 25, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation<\/a>. The agency issued a press release<\/a> that day noting a two-card collision had occurred “shortly before 1 a.m.” in the city of St. John’s and caused “significant damage to both of the vehicles involved.”<\/p>\n

Three people were transported to the hospital, per the RNC: a “59-year-old male driver and the 47-year-old male passenger of the SUV” who sustained “what is believed to be minor injuries,” as well as an officer who was sent for treatment “as a precaution.”<\/p>\n

The 47-year-old actor, though, made it out safely and was “looked at and then released back to work,” his representative Susan Patricola confirmed to USA TODAY on Monday, Sept. 29.<\/p>\n

The investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n

In August, production began on a currently untitled six-episode Netflix limited series that stars Hartnett. The show, created by Jesse McKeown, films and takes place in Newfoundland, according to the streamer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

USA TODAY has reached out to the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary and Netflix for comment.<\/p>\n

Hartnett has been married to actress Tamsin Egerton since 2021. In February 2024, he told Extra<\/a> that he and Egerton had welcomed their fourth child together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Oppenheimer” and “The Virgin Suicides” actor Josh Hartnett is back to work following a car accident in Canada.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":46235,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[20205,23081,23083,565,271,437,245,10149,36398,458,890,727,36393,17388,36400,23082,146,36392,85,46,36391,36397,2400,3886,564,753,36394,36399,397,400,421,43,36395,3880,420,426,559,36396,269,273,571,38,10730,424],"class_list":["post-46234","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-accident","tag-accidents","tag-accidents-u0026-disasters","tag-affiliate","tag-and","tag-arts","tag-canada","tag-car","tag-car-accidents-and-crashes","tag-celebrities","tag-celebrities-u0026-entertainment-news","tag-celebrity","tag-crashes","tag-disaster","tag-disaster-accident-and-tragedy","tag-disasters","tag-entertainment","tag-hartnett","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-josh","tag-josh-hartnett","tag-life","tag-life-now","tag-local","tag-local-affiliate-arts-u0026-entertainment","tag-m","tag-m-night-shyamalan","tag-movies","tag-netflix","tag-neutral","tag-news","tag-night","tag-now","tag-overall","tag-overall-neutral","tag-point","tag-shyamalan","tag-the","tag-to","tag-to-the-point","tag-top-stories","tag-tragedy","tag-u0026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46234","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46234"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46234\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46234"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
