In a Galaxy Far, Far Away, Star Wars Filmmakers Feel the Force of UK Courts
The makers of Star Wars: The Force Awakens receive a £1.6 million fine for seriously injuring Harrison Ford and putting other actors and crew members at risk.
Occupational hazards exist for movie stars, just like they do for “regular” workers. As the result of a serious injury that occurred on set to actor Harrison Ford, the makers of Star Wars: The Force Awakens have been sentenced in a UK court for failing to protect the actors and workers while on set during filming at Pinewood Studio, Slough, Buckinghamshire.
