Nicole Kidman Involved in On-Set Car Crash

Jan. 26, 2007 — -- Actress Nicole Kidman was involved in a car crash Thursday while filming the upcoming science fiction movie, "The Invasion."

Kidman was riding in a Jaguar for a scene, which was being filmed at 1 a.m. in downtown Los Angeles.

As the camera rig in front of the car rounded the corner, her car skidded out of control and smashed into a lightpost. The crash was captured by several cameras.

The Oscar-winning actress, along with seven crew members and stuntmen, some of whom had been clinging to the car's roof, were taken to the hospital.

As bad as the crash looked, Warner Brothers officials say that, amazingly, only two people were injured, both slightly.

Kidman was taken to the hospital, but was quickly released.

This isn't Kidman's first on-set mishap.

She banged her knee and cracked a rib while filming the song-and-dance extravaganza "Moulin Rouge."

Some of her other red carpet compatriots who have suffered for their art include Charlize Theron, who hurt her neck shooting "Aeon Flux" in Germany.

Halle Berry injured an eye making while making "Die Another Day" and whacked her head on a lighting fixture during the production of "Catwoman."
