Russell Crowe Discloses Fractured Legs from 'Robin Hood' Stunt Decade Later

The actor continued filming despite severe injuries, only discovering the extent of the damage years after.

  • Russell Crowe revealed he fractured both legs during a stunt on the 'Robin Hood' set in 2010, but didn't realize the severity until a decade later.
  • Despite the injury, Crowe never disclosed it to the production team nor took any time off, continuing to work through the pain.
  • The Oscar-winning actor only sought medical advice years later due to unusual pains, leading to the discovery of the fractures through MRI and X-rays.
  • Crowe's doctor was surprised by the findings, asking him when he had broken his legs, to which Crowe recalled the incident from the 'Robin Hood' shoot.
  • The actor managed to heal over time without any medical intervention, attributing his recovery to a year off and intense physical training for 'Man of Steel'.
