Tarzan actor Christopher Lambert, 67, is receiving physical therapy after a recent fall down the stairs.<\/p>\n

The Highlander alum was forced to pull out of the Swedish sci-fi convention SciFi World abruptly, as his reps confirmed to TMZ<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred a few months ago while he was staying in a hotel and he is now recovering from a back injury that requires physical therapy ahead of his role in Tulipomania which starts filming in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

‘As an actor, filming and promoting his films are an absolute priority and has always been, and while he has the highest respect for people organizing events and fans who attend; unfortunately, this time he will not be able to attend the Comic-Con.’<\/p>\n

The reps cleared up the record after the convention claimed<\/a> on their Facebook<\/a> page that he had a ‘serious accident on Monday.’<\/p>\n

They also claimed he wasn’t ‘allowed to travel or move for one month according to his doctor’ and sent him well wishes for a speedy recovery. <\/p>\n

The French-American actor is best known for his roles as Tarzan in the 1984 movie Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes and the 1986 hit action fantasy, Highlander.<\/p>\n

As well as filming for Tulipomania starting imminently, he is also about to embark on the promotion of his new Amazon Prime docuseries, Eyes Everywhere from Simona Calo.<\/p>\n

Per co-star Dean Michael Gregory’s Instagram<\/a>, the docudrama ‘explores Society 5.0, where technology helps place humanity back at the centre.’<\/p>\n

His recent projects include the 2022 horror thriller It’s Not Over and the 2018 gory mystery Shadow of the Wolf, in which he stars as Prof Moreau.<\/p>\n

There is a reboot of Highlander in the works with Henry Cavill starring as the immortal 16th-century hero and directed by John Wick filmmaker Chad Stahelski.<\/p>\n

FIlming for the remake, tipped for a 2026 release, will begin later this year after a few reported delays. <\/p>\n

In an interview last year, the Witcher star teased what to expect. <\/p>\n

‘If you think you\u2019ve seen me do sword work before, you haven\u2019t seen anything yet,’ he said. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Chad told The Direct<\/a>: ‘We’re bringing it forward from the early 1500s in the highlands to the beyond present-day New York and Hong Kong, and seeing how it goes. <\/p>\n

‘There’s big opportunity for action. There’s a chance to play a character that not a lot of people get to play. <\/p>\n

‘And it’s a bit of a love story, but not how you think. On\u00a0John Wick, I learned a lot on how to bend the storytelling a little\u2026 another kind of myth.’<\/p>\n
