Hawaii’s Five-0 task force will be without its leader for a little while. Hawaii Five-0 star Alex O’Loughlin will miss at least one episode of the CBS crime drama for a stint in rehab. “Alex is taking a short break from Hawaii Five-0 to receive supervised treatment for prescription pain medication due to a recent shoulder injury,” a rep for the actor said in a statement.
The series, which is ahead of schedule, is now shooting episode 20. Production will proceed as planned, with Hawaii completing its Season 2 order. “We respect and support Alex’s decision,” CBS Studios, which produces the series said. “Everyone at CBS Television Studios and Hawaii Five-0 wishes him well and we look forward to his return.”
