1月24日，奥斯卡影后妮可·基德曼在美国洛杉矶市中心拍摄新片《入侵》外景时，因车辆失控受伤。据报道，由于“美洲虎”车被摄像机架牵引着，所以，在拐弯处刹车时导致基德曼的汽车撞倒了西六街一根竿上。所幸基德曼伤势较轻，入院检查后不久即出院。《入侵》是一部关于外星人入侵的科幻惊悚影片，39岁的基德曼在片中扮演一个精神病医生。事故发生时，基德曼坐在一辆美洲虎轿车里，正努力摆脱趴在轿车引擎盖上的僵尸怪人。

Nicole Kidman was taken to a hospital after the Jaguar she was in crashed early Thursday during downtown shooting of thescience fiction thriller"The Invasion," police said.

Kidman, 39, was examined at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and then released a short time later. Paramedics were called to examine Kidman for injuries before she was taken to the hospital, police said.

"Nicole Kidman was in the vehicle at the time of the accident and was taken to the hospital for evaluation. She was released shortly thereafter," Warner Bros. said in a statement.

No other actors were involved in the scene at the time of the accident, the studio said.

The Jaguar was being towed by a camera rig that skidded while taking a corner and caused Kidman's car to hit a pole on West Sixth Street, police said. The actress was wearing a seat belt.

"The stunt driver apparently went off course and hit a light post at about 1 a.m.," police Officer Karen Smith said.

Eight people, including Kidman,stuntmenand cameramen, were taken to hospitals for examination and were released, Smith said. Warner Bros. said two crew members had minor injuries.

Warner Bros., a unit of Time Warner Inc., also said production continued after the crash and Kidman was expected back on the set Thursday.

The Oscar-winning actress, who stars as a Washington psychiatrist who unearths the origin of an alien epidemic, was involved in a scene involving an escape from zombielike characters who are on the hood of the car.
