It is unclear by whom, but she was warned to be careful when they arrived on the scene again.
However, the actor claimed that she then ‘intentionally’ kicked him in the head with her boot during the next take, which he said caused him severe pain, neck stiffness and ultimately a concussion.
He claimed that no medical attention was provided on set and that he continued to be abused by Goth as she allegedly approached him in the bathroom and “mocked, mocked and belittled” him.
He also claimed that he had to suffer more uncomfortable conditions, as he had to wear a robe and be completely covered in fake blood for the scene.
He said he had to lie on the floor and play dead for hours, which forced him to “put up with ants and mosquitoes.”
He also claimed that the fake blood dried and caused the cloak to stick to his body, which became painful to remove.
On the ride home, he claimed he “almost passed out twice” during the trip due to headaches and pain.
After the incident, he claims he was wrongfully fired and removed from production.
