Elisabeth Moss Broke Her Spine While Filming New FX Show 'The Veil'

The "Handmaid’s Tale" star recalled how the scene left her “lying on the roof for a couple hours."

Elisabeth Moss suffered a broken back after filming a stunt that went horribly wrong for the upcoming spy thriller series “The Veil.”

In a new interview with Variety published Wednesday, Moss revealed that the mishap left her “lying on the roof for a couple hours” in Istanbul, where they filmed one of the show’s early episodes.

In the second episode, Moss, who plays a British MI6 agent trying to stop a terrorist attack, faces off against a foe on a rooftop in the Turkish city.

“The [scene] you see in the show is actually the second time we shot it, about six weeks later,” the actor said. “The first time we shot it I hit a wall the wrong way, let’s just say, and ended up lying on the roof for a couple hours.”

Moss’ co-producer, Denise Di Novi, stayed with her while she awaited an examination after the incident, with Di Novi telling Variety that she “felt so bad for [Moss]” because she “fractured a vertebra really badly.”
