Filmmaker Michael Mann was injured at a gun range on Saturday in Los Angeles. He was taken to a hospital where he was treated and is being released, his representative told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Mann sustained what his representative described as a superficial injury after a weapon accidentally discharged while holstered.
The 83-year-old filmmaker behind crime classics like Heat, Collateral and Thief, as well the Muhammad Ali biopic Ali, has apparently been an experienced target shooter for decades, and the accident happened at a sanctioned gun range.
Mann continues to be quite active in Hollywood in his 80s. He most recently directed the film Ferrari, with Adam Driver, and is developing a sequel to Heat, which is supposed to begin filming early next year.
