Rebel Wilson suffered terrifying on-set accident that nearly left her ‘permanently disfigured'

News.com.au5 hours ago

When it comes to acting, Rebel Wilson goes all in.
During a recent interview with Access Hollywood, Wilson detailed the moment her nose got 'split open' while filming her new movie, Bride Hard.
'In a fight scene, a gun accidentally got whacked across my face,' Wilson said. 'It was just a freak accident, and my nose got split open, so I left set. It was really my last night of shooting. I was like, 'How unlucky can I be?''
The incident occurred during 'the last fight sequence' on the schedule, and resulted in a 'pool of blood.'
'I was freaking out,' she added. 'They take an ambulance and they have to call a plastic surgeon, because if they didn't, I would have been permanently disfigured. So we got the plastic surgeon, they did all the stitches, and you can't tell now, really, you can't tell.'
Wilson isn't the only celebrity who has opened up about a recent on-set mishap.
Charlize Theron revealed that while filming her latest action-packed project, Apex (which she filmed in Australia), she sustained a painful injury after doing some of her own dangerous stunt work – without protective equipment.
'Our crew delivered a really impressive movie, and yours truly did some stunts and action – without a harness, sometimes,' Theron said at Netflix's 2025 upfront presentation earlier this week, according to Entertainment Weekly. 'Don't tell Netflix.'
'It's actually a miracle that I'm here today,' she noted.
The Mad Max: Fury Road actress continued to detail the risks involved while she worked on her physically demanding role.
'Apex only wrapped like a week ago, so I'm fresh off the mountain. I still have some Australian dirt under this pretty manicure, and my cute boot is hiding a fractured toe … I can go on and on and on, but I won't.'
Despite the physical toll, Theron, 49, remained in good spirits as she recovered.
'I can honestly say that shooting 'Apex' was one of the most incredible experiences of my life,' she added.

Jamie Durie reveals major $30 million offer

Jamie Durie has revealed he's been presented a staggering $30 million offer for his luxurious waterfront home. The Australian landscaper turned TV personality finally moved into his sustainable Avalon compound on Sydney's Northern Beaches in November after a decade of planning and construction. Development on the ambitious property was filmed for Durie's Seven series Growing Home With Jamie Durie, which showed how he transformed a 1960s cottage into a six-bedroom, multi-level retreat fit with a pool, gym, media room and sweeping water views. Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Durie, 55, confessed he'd received an offer of more than $30 million, despite the fact he's not advertising the pad for sale. Durie, who lives at the property with his partner Ameka Jane and their two young children, bought the 1010 sqm block for $2.275 million in 2015. 'We've spent 10 years planning and building our family home and we love it,' Durie told the publication. 'We received an unexpected offer in the mid $30 million and are now warming to the idea of spending some time on our hobby farm with the kids while they are young. 'We have not listed or advertised the home but have asked McGrath to manage any off-market offers moving forward and we remain open minded either way, as we love living here.' The Seven presenter took to Instagram with an album of pictures showcasing the jaw-dropping property for the first time in March. 'Grateful. 10 years of planning, 2 years of construction and we're finally back home,' Durie captioned the post. He previously said it had been a 'lifelong dream' to build an off-the-grid house. 'Ten years ago I sketched the house. We lodged the plans five years ago and then the last two years has been construction,' he told Woman's Day in November. 'I don't think poor Ameka had any idea what she was signing up for when we met. But she came up with a number of ideas that added a lot of value to it.' Durie's celebrity friends flooded the comments section on his post with praise for the stunning finished product. 'Mate!!! Just wow,' gushed The Morning Show host Larry Emdur. TV personality Sally Obermeder wrote 'WOW' and I'm A Celeb host Julia Morris added: 'Spectacular.' Comedian Dave 'Hughesy' Hughes told him: 'That's proper wow. My god', while Getaway host Catriona Rowntree said it was 'bloomin' gorgeous'.
