According to an article at contactmusic, Skandar Keynes gave Ben Barnes a fat lip while filming earlier this week. Ben said that it happened during the sword fighting that we reported on earlier in the week, while nursing his wounds from the battle. It’s not a major injury and he’s likely to be back at work on the film soon, if he isn’t already.
From contactmusic:
But while filming scenes with co-star Skandar Keynes earlier this week a sword stunt backfired – and Barnes had to receive treatment for an injury to his mouth.
He says, “We’ve been sword fighting. It didn’t go quite according to plan – I’ve got a slightly swollen lip, because I got popped with the sword by young Skandar Keynes.”
Thanks to everyone who wrote in about it!

I find the fact that Skandar gave him the fat lip quite humorous! Luckily it’s nothing serious, but this is very funny. :]
yes I hope he is okay
LOL!
I hope Skander doesn’t feel to bad…
Huh, wonder if they could write it into the script. Say as Edmund gives him a fat lip he says,”That’s for kissing my sister. It wasn’t supposed to happen.”
that’s terrible
i hope he’s ok
you never tell what might happen during fliming
i can’t believe ben got a fat lip from skendar from sword fighting, i know i could get yelled at for saying this but i will pray that Ben’s mouth gets better
Not really a fan of ben, but i do hope hes ok, thank god it wasnt a major injury that could keep him from acting, another actor as caspian would basically ruin the movie
yahhh! WHATEVER
LOL!!!!! That’s funny. Thanks for the laugh.
Ha! That’s a laugh! But I do hope Skandar doesn’t feel bad. I never knew my poor Skandie was so vicious! Hehe. I just remembered; Will said in the LWW commentary that Skandar wasn’t a warrior. I guess Skandar proved him wrong
Well, now we know who is the better swordsman
Yes, yes we do. Although Skander has had more time to practice, 3 years in stead of 2, but still!
Ohhhhh! Poor BABY
I HOPE HE’S OKAY!
I posted this on the previous post, but did anyone notice that they took down the picture of the blonde girl that is supposedly Ben’s girlfriend…by his request I wonder?!? And yeah Ben will be just fine. And might I add that Skandar is looking pretty cute!!
lol true that,i hope ben feels better, i still love skandar though
Y’all do have a thing for those headlines, don’t you?
Ben’s lip doesn’t worry me all that much, but when I saw “injured” I felt panic in my chest.
Don’t scare us like that!
Yea..It would be so funny if they did.
So funny! I hope Skandar feels bad because that’s a sign that he cares, but he shouldn’t be hard on himself. I guess Skandar woke up on the wrong side of the bed. lol
Love that, Jonathan! Great idea! LOL
wow!! i hope that doesn’t slow down the process of the movie
but ben will be fine his tough
Lmao. that just made my day. And yes, that was NOT supposed to happen. If they don’t put that in the movie, definitely a youtube vid to come out of that…hah.
ditto… I too will pray for Ben. Although you have to admit that this is a little humerous. I just hope that Skandar won’t be too upset, after all it was an acident. Oh, and might I add that Skandar is looking quite…cute.
HAHAHHA yeah!
