Stuntman and actor Edward Sarsfield is suing August Street Films over burns he says he suffered in a 2023 on-set explosion while filming Gladiator II. His legal claim says a gas line used for special effects exploded on a burning ship, setting his costume alight and burning about 15% of his body. The company admits liability for the accident but disputes the alleged injuries and has not agreed to his £200,000 damages request.
