Actor Dominic Cooper says that he almost blinded Luke Evans while they were filming a fight scene for "Dracula Untold".
Cooper admitted to getting a bit carried away during the fight scenes with his co-star, who plays the titular character, and was left feeling "terrible" when he almost "poked his eye out" with a sword, reports contactmusic.com.
In an interview with Shortlist magazine, Cooper said: "I nearly poked Luke's eye out with a sword. We were trying to be careful and not use metal swords, and I think because of movement within the sword it bounced back into his eye - so I don't take full responsibility. It was pretty terrible."
