Jackson Rathbone, known to Twilight fans as Jasper Cullen, was injured while filming a fight scene for the third installment in the series, Eclipse. Jackson Rathbone, the popular Twilight saga actor, who is also a member of the band 100 Monkeys, was not badly hurt in the incident but he was taken to a local hospital. Rathbone was back on the Vancouver set of Eclipse the next day, no worse for the wear.

A rep for Summit Entertainment tells ET, "Actor Jackson Rathbone of the 'Twilight Saga' movies, was slightly injured yesterday during a fight scene rehearsal. As a precaution, he was driven to the hospital and checked out by a doctor. He's fine and is back at work on the set of 'Eclipse' today."

Rathbone plays the role of Jasper Hale in the series, the adopted brother of Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson.
