Rose McGowan Loses Part of Her Elbow

By PopEater Staff Posted Sep 9th 2009 09:11AM

In an extensive stunt gone wrong, Rose McGowan brought the 'Red Sonja' movie set to a standstill. The actress was transported to the hospital where she underwent wrist and elbow surgery. "They took part of my elbow out. I had really bad nerve damage from doing stunts - I do a lot of my own stunts," McGowan recently told Fox News.

"I could no longer use my arm, but now I can hold a fork and drive so we're working our way up. It'll probably be another six months of rehab, but it's the price you pay for being really limber and being able to do back flips!" she said.

McGowan even addressed the reports on her Twitter. "To clarify press reports: Red Sonja is delayed. I pulled out of doing it in '09. Not permanently.Hopefully will follow Conan," she wrote on August 28. "I am still contracted to do it Red Sonja. Hopefully Filming in '10 not '09."

McGowan plays the lead character, a young girl who loses her family to a group of mercenaries. Seeking revenge, the red-head becomes the most feared female warrior of all time.
