The film that doesn’t seem that it wants to be completed has suffered another setback. Bond 25 had a major accident on set at Pinewood Studios in the U.K.
According to a statement from the official James Bond Twitter account, a controlled explosion went wrong, resulting in damage to the exterior of the 007 stage at the iconic studio. While it claimed there were no injuries on set, it did report that a crewmember outside the stage had suffered a “minor injury.”

The Sun newspaper claimed that crew were testing a stunt involving a fireball in a laboratory when the incident took place.
“There were three huge explosions and it’s blown part of the Bond stage roof off and some wall panels off the stage,” a source told the paper. “There were three loud explosions, one after another, and a member of the crew was lying on the floor outside the building injured.”
No word on how long production ill be delayed after this incident.
