MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Anthony Anderson, the rotund comedic co-star of "Kangaroo Jack" and the original "Barbershop," has been arrested and charged with aggravated rape while shooting a movie.

The 33-year-old actor was accused by an unidentified woman of luring her into a trailer on the set of his latest movie, "Hustle & Flow," and sexually assaulting her. Also accused is the film's assistant director, Wayne Witherspoon.

Both men were charged on Wednesday after being taken into custody by the Shelby County Sheriff's Department.

The incident occurred Tuesday afternoon at the Shelby County Correctional Center, a penal farm on the outskirts of Memphis, where filming was under way for the movie.

Sheriff's spokesman Steve Shular said a passer-by heard screams coming from the trailer and opened the door.

"And she ran out nude," Shular said.

His hustle and flow needs serious work.

And kids, that's why you don't shoot movies in Memphis!

It's amazing that the passerby came by at that moment. If it's as bad as it looks, AA must be pretty stupid, doing something like that at all and in an area where people could easily know about. And the Assistant Director too? What is this, a semi-gangbang Hollywood movie set style? Of course, AA will get off or get little punishment no matter what, but that's the way it goes I guess.

And people need to stop with the Kobe references. It's not fair since Kobex can't reply.
