Yes. Orlando fell off a horse and broke a rib while filming Lord of the Rings. He was given painkillers and went back to filming almost immediately. What a pro. 🙂 (Incidentally, Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn) also broke his tooth during filming, and didn’t want to interrupt filming to go to the dentist, asking for super-glue instead (!), but producers insisted that he see a dentist for treatment.
