The actor will have a hearing in March
Tron: Legacy actor Garrett Hedlund was arrested Saturday night in Tennessee for public intoxication and taken to Franklin County jail.
He was later released on a $2100 bond according to a report from TMZ. News of the arrest comes a day after he and Emma Roberts decided to break up. No further reports were heard from the Franklin County Sheriff’s Department.
Breaking probation
Garrett Hedlund was previously arrested for driving under the influence in January 2020, and was caught in a serious crash. The accident involved a mother and daughter who claimed that they were “severely injured” and filed a lawsuit against the actor earlier this week. Hedlund’s blood alcohol level at the time was four time more than the legal limit, which was .36%. The plaintiffs have requested for punitive damages and a jury trial.
The actor is currently filming a movie called The Ploughmen, which tells the story of a friendship between a deputy sheriff and a murderer. The movie is written and directed by Oscar-nominated actor Ed Harris.
