Ange's determination to perform all her own stunts in new movie Salt saw her suffer a nasty cut to the head

And Action Ange is at it again… Angelina Jolie’s determination to perform all her own stunts on the set of new movie Salt, saw her land a nasty cut to the head.

The actress revealed her on-set accident during an appearance at the annual Comic-Con convention in San Diego, where she was promoting the action-packed flick.

She described how she was filming a ‘ridiculously’ easy scene which involved rolling onto the floor – but she misjudged the amount of space she had, and hit her head hard against a desk.

‘I was bleeding and I have a little scar now,’ she said.

‘I couldn’t hear everybody well, and I thought “Oh god, I’ve done it. I’ve got a concussion,'’ she laughed. ‘But it turns out I just still had my earplugs in, so I was fine.’

But her stunt-woman antics clearly impressesed her co-star, Liev Schreiber…

‘She wanted to do every stunt, and she did,’ he said at the convention.

‘No CGI in the movie, no stunt double, it’s all her.’
