"Halle Berry suffered a minor head injury while shooting a fight sequence on the set of her film, 'The Hive,’ " O’Sullivan said.

"She was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but she checked out healthy and was released. She'll continue production as planned."

"The Hive" also stars Abigail Breslin and David Otunga. The thrilled is about an emergency operator, forced to confront a killer from her past, according to IMDB.com.

This is at least the second time Berry has been hurt on the job in the past year.

She broke her foot in September while filming "Cloud Atlas" in Spain. The injury was serious enough to keep Berry off Oscar’s red carpet five months later in Tinseltown.
