August 21, 2018
A stuntwoman who worked on the 2017 Sony Pictures comedy “Rough Night” has sued the movie studio for negligence over a watercraft accident in which she was hurt.
Attorneys for Lauren Singer Harper, going by the name Laurie Singer, said she sustained serious injuries in 2016 while filming a scene in Brooklyn that called for her to crash a personal watercraft into the beach at 28 mph and launch herself onto the sand.
Singer, of Hillsborough, N.C., served as Kate McKinnon’s stunt double in the raunchy film, which also starred Scarlett Johansson.
