Kim Kardashian throwing herself – literally – into character for her latest role.
The reality star turned actress, 45, has been filming Eva Longoria’s newest movie, The Fifth Wheel, as of late – but on Wednesday the scene was resembling more of an action flick than a comedy.
The wild scene saw a blonde Kardashian in the arms of comedian and co-star Fortune Feimster, 45, who appeared to be holding the reality star from something.
Director Longoria, 50, stood close by with paperwork in hand, offering guidance as the scene unfolded on the Los Angeles set.
The star-studded scene also involved Nikki Glaser, 41, Brenda Song, 37, and Kristen Wiig, 52, who recoiled at the sight of Kardashian catapulting towards Feimster.
The scene appeared to follow a confrontation Kardashian had with the three women, until Feimster stepped in to intervene.

But Kardashian didn’t go down without a fight, getting out a word or two to the intended recipient and shooting a finger up into the air.
For the scene, Kardashian was costumed in a white blazer, mini dress, and blue polka dot neck scarf. A pair of slippers indicated they may have still been rehearsing.
The film sees Kardashian play a woman who upends the lives of a group of best friends (Glaser, Song, Feimster).
The Fifth Wheel also stars comedians Jack Whitehall and Casey Wilson.
Insiders previously told Deadline they expected Kardashian to ‘be very hands on’ with marketing tie-ins with the movie, with an eye on branding.
In recent years, Kardashian has been pursuing acting.
She recently starred in Ryan Murphy’s legal drama series All’s Fair on Hulu alongside Hollywood heavyweights including Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson and Niecy Nash-Betts.
The show has been renewed for a second season.
All’s Fair had an impressive debut as it logged in 3.2 million views, which was calculated as total viewing minutes divided by running time, worldwide in the three days following its November 4 premiere.

Hulu proudly announced that All’s Fair saw the best start for an original scripted series on the platform in three years.
The TV critics were not kind, making Kardashian joke about it on Instagram, though fans have praised the show.
All’s Fair stars Kardashian as Allura Grant, a high-powered divorce lawyer in Los Angeles whose firm specializes in winning big settlements for their female clients.
Kardashian has also been busy with her quest to become an attorney, though she recently revealed she failed the California bar, which she took in July.
‘Well…I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV,’ she shared, referencing her role as Allura.

Kardashian is also balancing her blossoming acting career with a new love in her life.
The star has been on a ‘few dates recently’ with Formula 1 race car driver Lewis Hamilton.
The beauty was spotted in Paris with the seven-time Formula One World Champion, and an insider has confirmed that the celebrity duo are ‘casually’ dating.
The source told Us Weekly: ‘She has felt ready to put herself back out there recently.’
Kim finalised her divorce from rap star Kanye West back in 2022, and her family simply want to see her feeling happy.
The insider shared: ‘Everyone around her wants her to be happy after everything she has gone through.’
Kardashian has dated the likes of Pete Davidson and Odell Beckham Jr. since her acrimonious split from Kanye, while Lewis was previously in a high-profile, on-off relationship with pop star Nicole Scherzinger.
