Morgan Freeman's "people" say the "Dark Knight" actor is recovering nicely from a car accident in Mississippi.

"Morgan is doing well after surgery last night to reconnect nerves and to repair damage to his left arm and hand," Freeman's publicist, Donna Lee, said in a statement.

"The surgery lasted approximately four and a half hours, including recovery, and he is in good spirits and was visiting with family members this morning."

The good news is that it looks like Freeman will recovery completely from all injuries despite the fact that he had to be pulled from his car by the jaws of life, and that the hospital once reported Morgan in serious condition.

We wish him the best of luck to a speedy recovery!
