“Gossip Girl” star Kaylee Defer and actor Steve Stanulis suffered a number of injuries after a fight scene for their new movie got out of hand, reports Contact Music.

The pair was filming upcoming horror Darkroom, which also stars “Law & Order”‘s Elizabeth Rohm, at a bar on Staten Island, New York on Thursday night (June, 29, 2011) in scenes which show their characters embroiled in a brawl with club bouncers.

However, the fake fight didn’t run smoothly – DeFer was left with bruised ribs and Stanulis had a twisted knee, according to New York Post gossip column Page Six.

The stars carried on and re-filmed the scene before seeking medical treatment.

In the film DeFer plays Michelle, whom takes a job recommended by her counselor that lands her trapped in a mansion with three psychotic siblings hell bent on purging Michelle of her sins.

Dan Stevens is everywhere lately, from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire to Abigail and the upcoming Cuckoo. We’re not complaining. Up next? He’s starring in horror movie The Ritual.

Al Pacino and Dan Stevens have both joined the cast of the upcoming exorcism horror movie from XYZ Films and director David Midell, Variety reports this afternoon.

Based on a true story, the film “follows two priests — one questioning his faith (Stevens) and one reckoning with a troubled past (Pacino) — who must put aside their differences to save a possessed young woman through a difficult and dangerous series of exorcisms.”

Variety details, “The film is an authentic portrayal of Emma Schmidt, an American woman whose demonic possession culminated in harrowing exorcisms. Her case remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.”

David Midell and Enrico Natale wrote the screenplay for The Ritual.

XYZ Films is planning to release the horror film theatrically in 2025.
