You’ve probably already heard by now that Morgan Freeman was in a pretty bad car accident Sunday night, and was listed in serious condition after being taken to a Tennessee hospital.
But according to CNN, he’s in good spirits now and was even joking around with rescue workers immediately after the accident.
He suffered a broken left arm and other fractures, along with neck and shoulder injuries. He could have surgery as early as tonight and could need 3-4 months to recover.
According to IMDB, he’s involved with a movie called The Last Full Measure, which is listed as in-production. No word on whether he’s filmed his scenes yet or not, nor how this could affect that movie.
I absolutely love Freeman in pretty much everything he does, although my favorite role of his was Red in The Shawshank Redemption.
So here’s to hoping for a speedy recovery for the 71-year-old actor.
I'm actually surprised he is that old.
What an amazing actor! Good pic of him too!
i liked him in the Electric Company…
I'm really he is ok. That would have been so sad if he would have passed. He is a stud.
Glad to hear that Freeman is doing okay, despite his injuries. I just rewatched SE7EN to help expedite his recovery.
Prayers for his immediate recovery.
