The 30-year-old “Hunger Games” star was hit in the face with shards of glass in a stunt-gone-wrong, the Boston Globe reported.

Lawrence was standing behind a window when a trash can crashed through as part of a stunt, according to the Globe. Filming was canceled Friday, but Lawrence is expected to be fine for production to resume Monday.

The Academy Award winner was filming a scene with Timothée Chalamet when she was injured, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Lawrence and Chalamet are two of the many stars in the ensemble cast for “Don’t Look Up.”

Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Rob Morgan, Meryl Streep, Jonah Hill and Kid Cudi also appear in the film, set to be released this year as part of Netflix’s plan to debut a new film every week.

The Adam McKay-directed comedy focuses on two low-level scientists who discover that a meteor will strike Earth and spend six months trying to convince a skeptical public.
