Actor forced to take 3-day break from filming
Monday, 22 September 2008
Leonardo DiCaprio suffered a violent reaction to dust particles on set of his new movie Body Of Lies.
The actor, 33, was shooting a brutal fight sequence in a disused Moroccan prison when he became ill.
His allergy was so severe that filming was brought to a standstill while medics rushed to his aid.
‘We did a scene in some medieval torture tomb,’ he recalls.
‘There was some kind of horrific dust in the air.'
After round-the-clock treatment for 3 days, Leo was deemed well enough to continue.
‘It’s really worrying that inhaling the dust had that much affect on him,’ a source tells the Daily Star Sunday.
‘It affected his breathing and he didn’t look well at all. Who can tell what the long-term effects will be?’
Body Of Lies is set for release on 21 November
