Two people have been hurt in a small explosion at the studios where the Hobbit is being filmed.
The Fire Service confirmed they were called to an "industrial explosion" at the Stone St studios in Miramar.
Wellington Free Ambulance said two people were treated at the scene and were taken to hospital.
A small fire followed the explosion but it was out when firefighters arrived.
A spokesman for Wingnut Films said the explosion was in a workshop, not on set, and filming was continuing.
An investigation had been launched. The two people were taken to hospital as a precaution, the spokesman said.
