Paz de la Huerta is being accused of wrongly trying to get paid twice for injuries she suffered while making a slasher flick, reports the New York Post.
She was paid $73,000 in worker’s-comp cash after a stuntman plowed an ambulance into her while she was filming “Nurse 3D” in Toronto in 2011, Lionsgate Films says in a new court filing.
The actress claims she nearly died from the on-set wreck and is suing the film’s producers for more compensation.
But Lionsgate says the “Boardwalk Empire” actress signed away her rights to future claims when she collected the worker’s comp.
De la Huerta was making $37,874 a week before she was hit by the ambulance.
She has said she nearly died from the stunt. The impact injured her chest and arm and left her with a neuromuscular syndrome, according to court papers.
When she filed suit last October, her attorney, Michael D’Agostino, told The Post that the driver clipped the actress with his side-view mirror, knocking her to the ground.
Attorneys for both sides declined to comment.
