'Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark' Actor Alleges Injuries On Set

Despite how well "Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark" does on Broadway, it feels like we can't go a month without hearing about some new legal problems on the set of the musical.

This time, it's actor and stunt man Richard Kobak -- who performs under the name Joshua Kobak -- who is filing a suit against the producers of the musical. He claims that he has suffered two knee injuries, herniated discs, whiplash and a concussion from two different injuries on set. Kobak has filed with the New York State Supreme Court to make producers 8 Legged Prods. produce documents and other information having to do with the injuries and the controls for "Turn Off The Dark's" aerial stunts, according to Variety.

Turns out that Kobak was pretty seriously injured during the same sequence that left Christopher Tierney in the hospital back in December 2010. According to his claims, no one reprogrammed the computerized rigging system for his weight instead of Tierney's, and as a result he suffered two knee injuries back in December 2010: a 0.14 cm hole in his right knee and a 0.9 cm hole in his left.

Then in April 2011, Kobak says another computer-controlled rig sent him into a wall where he struck his head and face and resulted in the previously mentioned injuries. Kobak's filings are saying the computer system is responsible for both injuries.

The producers on the show haven't responded yet to the allegations. A representative for "Turn Off the Dark" did wish Kobak well on his current gig on the "American Idiot" tour, though.
