Kate Beckinsale Sues 'Canary Black' Producers for Negligence and Battery
- In 2024, Kate Beckinsale initiated legal action against the production company behind Canary Black and one of its key producers, claiming she endured hazardous working conditions while filming in Croatia during late 2022 and early 2023.
- Her complex meniscus tear occurred in December 2022 during a scene where she was thrown against a wall with minimal padding, despite her repeated warnings about safety risks.
- Beckinsale and her team raised concerns about long, 15-hour set days, inadequate equipment and medical support, and lack of stunt preparation, but producers allegedly ignored these red flags and doctor limitations.
- The amended May 21 complaint quotes producer Zois acknowledging "I don't know what else to say other than you're right" regarding dangerous conditions and seeks general and special damages at trial.
- The lawsuit suggests neglect and intentional emotional distress caused Beckinsale severe, avoidable injuries and implies ongoing industry risks when safety is sacrificed for profit.
