Josh Hartnett hospitalized after car crash with cops

Josh Hartnett was taken to the hospital following a collision with a police vehicle in Canada.

The “Pearl Harbor” star, 47, was sent to the hospital after an SUV he was riding in collided with a Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) patrol vehicle in St. John’s around 1 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 25, per a report shared by the RNC.

Hartnett was said to be in the car with an unidentified 59-year-old man, who was also hospitalized. Police said both of their injuries were minor.

Hartnett’s rep confirmed to The Post on Monday that the “Fight or Flight” star has since checked out of the hospital and returned to work following the collision.

The officer involved in the crash was also sent to the hospital “as a precaution,” per police, who noted that both vehicles were “significantly damaged” in the accident.

The two-vehicle crash occurred at the intersection of New Cove Road and Elizabeth Avenue just before 1 a.m.

“RNC collision analysts are seeking any witnesses or video footage (CCTV, dash-camera, cell phone) from the area in the lead up to, or immediately following the collision,” the press release read.

Hartnett was reportedly in St. John’s filming a show for Netflix at the time of the crash, and an insider told the CBC that the “Trap” star was heading home from set when the SUV he was in was struck by the RNC vehicle.

The “Oppenheimer” actor is currently filming an untitled Netflix project in Newfoundland, according to IMDb.

“When a mysterious sea creature terrorizes a remote town, a fisherman must fight to protect his family, his community, and his way of life,” the show’s synopsis reads.

Besides Hartnett, the still-untitled series is set to include “Stranger Things” star Charlie Heaton and “Speak No Evil” actor Mackenzie Davis.

The “Bear” star, who first made a name for himself after appearing in hit films like 1998’s “The Faculty” and the 2001 blockbuster “Black Hawk Down,” up and left Hollywood in the mid-2000s despite a successful career on the big screen.

He opened up about the decision to ditch Tinsel Town and retreat to his home state of Minnesota last year during a candid chat with the Guardian.

“People’s attention to me at the time was borderline unhealthy,” Hartnett explained at the time. “There were incidents. People showed up at my house. People that were stalking me.”

“There were lots of things. It was a weird time,” he added. “And I wasn’t going to be grist for the mill.”

After moving from Los Angeles back to Minnesota, Hartnett and his wife, British actress Tamsin Egerton, packed up and moved once again – this time to Hampshire, England.

But the actor’s departure from Hollywood took a toll on the type of roles he was able to land, something Hartnett opened up about back in 2014.

“I still get offered film and TV roles, luckily, but years ago, if I saw a role I wanted, there was a good chance I could grab it,” he explained at the time.

“When I see a role now, I’ve got to fight for it. It’s not bad. It’s actually more rewarding,” Hartnett concluded. “Depressing when something doesn’t go your way, but only for a minute.”
