Kanye West is about to make a huge cameo in a sequel to one of the biggest blockbuster hits in 2004.

Hollywood.com has learned the rapper is filming his scene for Anchorman 2. The movie, which is officially titled Anchorman: The Legend Continues, is set to be released in December.

West was spotted in downtown Atlanta a few days ago with Christina Applegate and Paul Rudd. The witness, who saw the trio on set, tells the website, "he was quite afraid of heights and required an umbrella for shade most of the time he was on the roof."

West’s role in the film has not been announced, but of course, we can let the speculation begin. He will join a top-notch list of cameos including Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Sacha Baron Cohen, Harrison Ford, Liam Neeson and Nicole Kidman.
