Hollywood legend Daniel Day- Lewis has broken his arm in a motorcycle accident, his spokesperson has confirmed.

The Oscar-winning actor appeared to be wincing in pain as he made his way to his New York City home sporting a cast and a hospital bracelet.

And his representative has now confirmed to People magazine that the 60-year-old star has broken his arm, but reassured that the "There Will be Blood" actor "is fine".

The crash comes a few months after the screen legend announced his retirement.
