Sugarfields Production Stalls after JW Cortés Accident

Actor J.W. Cortés suffered a fall while filming a chase sequence for the feature film Sugarfields yesterday. Cortés was shooting the final scenes of a grueling 9 day schedule when he fell mid-scene while pursuing co-star Mark Castro. The producers were quick to act and rushed J.W. for treatment and director Michael Biggam was later quoted as saying:

Cortés, star of Fox TV's Gotham, was unavailable for comment at time of publication.

Mark Castro looks pensive as Jesus Reyes la Salle aids J.W. Cortés. Producer/director Michael Biggam shares a moment with producer/DoP David Mondin.

Sources say production will continue on Sugarfields in the coming days.
