Batwoman star Ruby Rose has revealed she underwent emergency surgery after serious injuries she sustained doing stunts left her at risk of being paralysed.
The 33-year-old actress, who is also known for starring in Orange is the New Black and Pitch Perfect 3, said she was left in "chronic pain" due to her injuries.
Rose posted a graphic video of her surgery on Instagram, and wrote: "Well that was fun. To anyone asking about my new Pez dispenser scar on my neck.
"A couple of months ago I was told I needed an emergency surgery or I was risking becoming paralyzed.
"I had herniated two discs doing stunts and they were close to severing my spinal chord. I was in chronic pain and yet couldn't feel my arms."
After thanking her doctor, she added jokingly, "And to anyone asking why I let them video it. Did you not watch that Greys anatomy episode where they left a towel in a patient?? Also I wanted to see what happens when we go under."
Rose is due to make her debut as Batwoman in a new TV series which premieres on American network The CW on October 6.
