Harrison Ford has reportedly been airlifted to a hospital in England after suffering "a bad ankle injury" on the set of Star Wars: Episode VII.
In a statement, Disney confirmed that Ford had been injured, but didn't provide any further details. The Mirror reports that Ford's injury was caused by a hydraulic door, which fell down and hit him during filming. It's unclear when Ford will be cleared to return to the set, but Disney confirmed that "shooting will continue as planned while [Ford] recuperates."
