One of the stars of 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' has been injured and was taken to the hospital. Read on for details.

A rep for Summit Entertainment tells "The Insider," "Actor Jackson Rathbone of the 'Twilight Saga' movies, was slightly injured yesterday during a fight scene rehearsal. As a precaution, he was driven to the hospital and checked out by a doctor. He's fine and is back at work on the set of 'Eclipse' today."

Rathbone plays the role of Jasper Hale in the series, the adopted brother of Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson.

'Eclipse' finds the film's protagonist Bella (Kristen Stewart) forced to choose between her passionate love for vampire Edward, and her deep friendship with werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). As her high school graduation approaches, Bella's hometown of Forks is threatened by a series of killings in nearby Seattle, while evil vamp Victoria continues her vendetta against Bella, leading to a deadly showdown. The film will premiere on June 30, 2010.
