'Maze Runner' star Dylan O'Brien injured on set

"Maze Runner" star Dylan O'Brien was hit by a car and suffered multiple injuries on the set of the franchise's upcoming sequel "The Death Cure".

O'Brien was reportedly run over by a vehicle in a car scene gone wrong and may have suffered multiple broken bones.

The 24-year-old actor was taken to a local hospital in British Columbia for observation and treatment following the accident, reports variety.com.

"Maze Runner" author James Dashner tweeted an update on the actor's health on Friday.

"I just want to let everyone know that yes, Dylan was hurt, but that he's going to be okay," Dashner said.

"Not life threatening in any way. Production is postponed but certainly not cancelled. All that matters now is that Dylan recovers. We love you, Dylan," he added.

O'Brien stars in the series as Thomas. The 2014 original grossed $102 million in US receipts, and 2015 follow-up "The Scorch Trials" tallied $82 million in domestic box office.

He's also known for his role on MTV's "Teen Wolf" and his appearance in "The Internship".

"The Death Cure," the third instalment, will release on February 17, 2017.
