LOS ANGELES - Nicole Kidman was taken to a hospital after the Jaguar she was driving crashed early Thursday during downtown shooting of the science 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, stuntmen and 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.

Best. Nicole. Photo. Ever.
Great minds choose photos alike.
I beg to differ.
The photo I am thing of is better.
Even the link would not be allowed here.
You betcha! };*)
What/where is that from?
Mail it to me. Now.
Not from here. Gimme an hour and a half.
I have no idea. I had some doubt that it was Nicole in the first place, but the photo's been around for so long that I no longer suspect.
Is that what was posted. I never got it, it was blocked.
Cruise dropped the ball on this one, IMO.
What kind of wine is she drinking and is that a Frigidaire in the back ground?
More importantly, what's she doing in the kitchen?
Zombies will do that, ya know. Darn zombies!
