I was doing a series of stunts and I got into an accident and had a very complex injury to my left knee.
I had to have three surgeries, and now I have three titanium screws in my left leg. This film had to be postponed for one year. A lot of money was lost, and a lot of people had to wait just one year. And now I carry this responsibility in my head.
