'Green Hornet' Star Edward Furlong in Jail After Violating Restraining Order

Edward Furlong, who has had roles in 'Terminator 2' and most recently 'The Green Hornet', alongside Seth Rogan, has gone from the big screen to behind bars.

According to MSNBC, the actor, 33, successfully showed up in court Tuesday at 10:30 AM for a progress report regarding his probation violation from November. Furlong left threatening messages on the voicemail of his then soon-to-be ex-wife, going against the the restraining order that expressly prohibited this. This made the voicemails a direct violation of the law.

Furlong again breached the restraining order this December, when he came within 50 yards of his ex-wife. Tuesday morning's hearing was set up to address these violations. The judge, however, sent Furlong directly to jail where he now remains on $75,000 bail. His next probation violation hearing is currently set up, ironically, for this upcoming Valentine's Day.

There must not be a lot of love for Furlong from Rogan, the man behind 'Green Hornet.' Rogan starred, wrote and executive produced the big-budget action flick, so $75,000 bond for a friend would be pocket change.
