The bolt hit the building in which the cast and crew were filming during a violent thunderstorm.

“Hi everyone, yeah I am fine,” he tweeted to fans. “I was struck by lightning on the arm and am doing fine now. It was very traumatic.

“We (were) just starting to film. It came through the roof and struck nine other crew members. I feel very lucky to be alive.

“I've learned a lot from this experience. We have two weeks left of filming and I know it will be a great and productive time. The crew have been wonderful.

"I am looking forward to all of you seeing the film. I believe it will be very special. Thank you for all of you kind words.”
