OK, good thing I'm the skeptical type, or I might take some sort of message from this.
BBC NEWS | Entertainment | Jesus actor struck by lightning
It was the second time Michelini had been hit by lightning during the shoot.
Neither of them was badly hurt, according to the film's producer Steve McEveety.
Michelini had previously been struck during filming in Matera, Italy, when he suffered light burns to his fingers after lightning hit his umbrella.
Describing the second lightning strike, McEveety told VLife, a supplement of the trade paper Variety: "I'm about a hundred feet away from them when I glance over and see smoke coming out of Caviezel's ears."[...]
OK, the guy playing Jesus was struck once, but the assistant director has been struck twice this shoot, making three times total...so far. You think future films he's involved with might have insurance issues?
