According to The Guardian, Holland was injured on Friday, September 19, 2025, while performing a stunt that reportedly involved head impact. The 29-year-old actor was taken to the hospital where he was treated and later discharged. While the injury is described as mild, it was serious enough for the production to temporarily halt.
