Susan Olsen reveals serious injury on Brady Bunch set during pilot episode

Susan Olsen, best known for playing Cindy Brady on The Brady Bunch, has revealed that she suffered a serious injury while filming the show’s pilot episode. Speaking on The Real Brady Bros podcast, hosted by her former co-stars Barry Williams and Christopher Knight, Olsen shared details of a frightening accident on the Culver City lot.

A piece of equipment fell from the catwalk above the set, first striking a makeup artist before bouncing and hitting Olsen in the face. At the time, the young actress was standing on a chair having body makeup applied. "It hurt so badly,” she recalled. "I wanted to sob.”

Olsen said her injuries — including a swollen face and two black eyes — were visible in the wedding scene of the premiere episode, where Carol (Florence Henderson) marries Mike (Robert Reed). She noted that her altered appearance can also be seen in early promotional photos. Despite the incident, Olsen returned to work the next day. She credited Henderson for making sure the crew acknowledged the injury, despite initial claims that she was fine. "Everybody was trying to say, ‘It didn’t really hit her,’” she said.

曾与露西尔·鲍尔合作过的著名化妆师哈尔·金被请来掩盖瘀伤。奥尔森是《我爱露西》的忠实粉丝，她回忆起与他合作的兴奋之情。“每天，我身上的瘀伤都会变成不同的颜色，”她说，还开玩笑说自己看起来就像在演恐怖电影。

虽然这位女演员以幽默和感激的态度回顾了她早期的经历，但她最近的公众形象却引发了争议。2024年底，奥尔森声称，由于她的政治信仰，《布雷迪家族》的重播被取消了——这一说法遭到了消息人士的质疑。

一件设备从片场上方的t台上掉了下来，先是砸到了一位化妆师，然后弹回来，砸到了奥尔森的脸。当时，这位年轻的女演员正站在椅子上化妆。“疼得厉害，”她回忆说。“我想哭。”

奥尔森说，在第一集的婚礼现场，卡罗尔（弗洛伦斯·亨德森饰）和迈克（罗伯特·里德饰）的婚礼现场，她的受伤——包括脸部肿胀和两只黑眼睛——都很明显。她指出，在早期的宣传照片中也可以看到她改变了的样子。尽管发生了这件事，奥尔森第二天还是回去工作了。她称赞亨德森确保机组人员承认她受伤，尽管最初声称她没事。“每个人都想说，‘这并没有真正打击到她，’”她说。
