TF was all “Ooooooh” when we heard Kurt Russell was replacing Kevin Costner on Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained . But we were all “Owwwww” when we heard Christoph Waltz had dislocated his pelvic bone in a horse riding accident during pre-production of the same film.

According to a statement from his agent, the Oscar-winning actor was injured while training with his horse in preparation for the role.

“Waltz is currently being treated for a dislocated pelvic bone and is looking forward to getting back in the saddle,” the statement added.
