ELEVEN people were injured, one of them seriously, on the Berlin set of Tom Cruise's new movie Valkyrie.
They were hit by a truck on a curve in the Mitte neighbourhood during filming last night, police said.
Filming at historical locations in Berlin's government district was suspended and the truck was being examined for mechanical defects.
In Valkyrie, Cruise stars as Colonel Count Claus Schenk von Stauffenberg, a leader of the failed 1944 plot to kill Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.
Cruise has been staying in Berlin with his wife Katie Holmes and their infant daughter Suri during shooting in Berlin and surrounding Brandenburg state.
Valkyrie tracks the plot against Hitler, in which Stauffenberg planted a bomb in a briefcase at a briefing at Wolfsschanze, or Wolf's Lair, the German military high command in Eastern Prussia.
The bomb killed four people but only injured Hitler.
Stauffenberg was arrested soon after the blast and executed the next day.
