47-year-old Josh Hartnett has been acting since he was a teen. His career start saw him playing Michael in Cracker. However, he was no one-hit wonder and continues acting today. He has recently been working on an upcoming movie, Verity.
Hartnett Hospitalised: While on his way back from filming for an unnamed Netflix show, Hartnett was involved in a car crash. As he crossed an intersection in Canada, he collided with a police patrol vehicle. Both vehicles were heavily damaged in the crash, and Hartnett, along with his driver and a police officer, was taken to the hospital.
- The incident occurred at 1 a.m. Hartnett wasn’t driving the vehicle. The 57-year-old driver of the SUV was also taken to the hospital. It was reported that the police officer also received minor injuries in the collision.
Speedy Recovery
It has been reported to a source for Page Six that the injuries sustained by Josh Hartnett in the car accident didn’t warrant a long stay in the hospital. They claim that he has already been released and is due back at work.
Back to Work: According to a source, the Netflix show Hartnett was working on has him playing the role of a vengeful fisherman. The show is set in Newfoundland, Canada. According to rumours, a small fishing village is under siege from a mysterious sea creature. In true Lovecraftian fashion, Hartnett fights back.
Despite his car accident, it doesn’t sound like the American actor will be out of work for too long. It appears that he is simply a little shaken up by the whole incident. There is an ongoing investigation to find out who was responsible for the car crash.
Usually, Hartnett would be over in the UK with his British wife and children. He is the only yank in the family, and reportedly gets quite a bit of stick for it. However, he was up in the US for his latest, spooky, sea beast-fighting Netflix show.
