Her publicist said the car was being towed by a filming vehicle at the time. "The stunt driver apparently went off course and hit a light post," said Los Angeles police officer Karen Smith. The accident happened on a public street in the city, which had been sealed off for filming. Ms Smith said police would probably conduct a routine traffic accident investigation at the scene. Kidman's publicist, Catherine Olim, said the star was trying to shake zombies off the bonnet of her Jaguar when the car spun off the road. "I think she's OK," said Ms Olim. She said Kidman, 39, was examined at hospital then released two hours later, and was expected to go straight back to work.
