According to reports, Bennett allegedly punched a 29-year-old man in the face at a hotel party in downtown San Antonio.
The New Zealand actor was released from jail on Sunday at around 1 pm.
Police haven’t released any other details about the incident, but Bennett can always use the excuse that he’s just preparing for another villainous role?
