EPA/NINA PROMMERThe 'Romy and Michele's High School Reunion' actress was filming scenes on a speedboat for forthcoming miniseries 'The Last Templar' with co-star Scott Foley when a wave knocked her head into a hook, causing the bloody and painful injury.She explained: "I broke five teeth. There was blood everywhere - it was gross and hurt so much."Things soon went from bad to worse on the shoot when the director decided to film a love scene shortly after the 41-year-old star recovered from her knock.She added to the New York Post newspaper: "For some reason, right then our wonderful director, Paolo Barzman, decides that we should have a kiss to end all kisses, and so, after they paint even more bloody purple make-up on me, we have the big kiss. And at the end of it, Scott ends up for two weeks in bed, sick with my cold!"Mira plays Tess Chaykin in the show, which is about a New York archaeologist who is researching the lost secrets of the medieval Knights Templar.
