As we reported, Tuesday (Nov. 22) was the last day of production on G.I. Joe 2 in New Orleans, but unfortunately the movie wrapped on a tragic note.
On Tuesday crew member Mike Huber was tearing down the set when a scissor lift tipped, leading to fatal injuries.
Paramount would not confirm details, but did provide a statement: “Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the Huber family at this time. The safety of our cast and crew is our top priority and the studio is fully cooperating with all investigating agencies as they examine the circumstances surrounding this unusual accident.”
G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation, which stars Dwayne Johnson, Bruce Willis, and Channing Tatum, opens in theaters on June 29, 2012.
