John Goodman recovered from a fractured hip in an 'old-age home'

John Goodman recovered from a fractured hip in an "old-age home".

The 74-year-old actor was taken to hospital while filming Digger after falling over co-star Tom Cruise, but fortunately the Mission: Impossible star's medical connections ensured he received swift treatment before undergoing two weeks of rehabilitation treatment in London.

He told the Sunday Times magazine: “I was stupidly wearing stockinged feet, no shoes. I went past Tom, my feet slid out and I went down parallel on my left hip.

“Tom’s physician was on set and one of his best friends is an osteopath, so I was operated on the next morning.”

Of his rehab, he added: “In a medical facility. Actually, an old-age home.

"Then I went home and hit it every day, physically pushed it and got it done.”
