Nicolas Cage reportedly broke his ankle while filming the motion picture "#211" in Sofia, Bulgaria, but should be able to return to work in two weeks.
Cage, 53, who won the best acting Academy Award in 1996 for "Leaving Las Vegas," flew to Los Angeles for treatment after declining to be operated on in Bulgaria, according to Deadline.com. "#211" is a bank heist film directed by York Alec Shackleton.
People magazine reported that details of Cage's on-set accident were not immediately available. It was not mentioned in media reports whether the accident will delay the release of the movie, which was scheduled for some time this year.
Cage has kept busy in recent years, with his work on "The Humanity Bureau," "Vengeance: A Love Story," and "Mom and Dad," Variety reported. The publication stated that Cage most recently appeared in "USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage," "Snowden," and "Dog Eat Dog."
Fans passed along their condolences for Cage on social media.
