In an interview with Good Morning Britain, it was revealed that 'Dracula Untold' star Luke Evans injured himself several times while shooting for the film!

It seems his character as the legendary vampire didn't just call for him to bite other people. He revealed that he punctured his own lips a couple of times while filming due to the very long fangs that he had to wear for the role.

Although the injuries weren't serious, they were still quite uncomfortable.

The actor explained, ''The ones in the film are much, much bigger [than my own] - I had two different sets, the really long ones, that they would have for just biting moments, and then the ones I could talk and do action with but [they] still pierced my lip quite a few times, horrible!"

However, Luke Evans, injured or not, carried on with the filming despite having to shoot gruelling fight scenes with the long fangs.

''I'm fighting with [the fangs] and sword fighting and I just kept piercing my lip all the time - it wasn't very good," he shared.

'Dracula Untold' is a fictional account of Vlad III Țepeș or Vlad the Impaler's life before he became what people now know as Count Dracula. The film promises to show the threats and dangers that forced Vlad III into choosing the darkness.

He might be uncomfortable with it, but it looks like Luke Evans being injured by his fangs will be a regular occurrence. The actor previously revealed that a possible sequel could happen for the 3D movie.

"He's immortal, so it could go anywhere," Evans previously said about the possibility of a second film. "There's a lot of discussions about that so it's very exciting and I'm very much involved in the whole thing."

In the meantime, 'Dracula Untold,' which also stars Dominic Cooper, will be hitting US cinemas on October 10.
