Kanye West is to have a cameo role in Anchorman: The Legend Continues.
The 35-year-old rapper was spotted filming scenes for the comedy sequel - which stars Will Ferrell as bungling news reader Ron Burgundy - on the set in Atlanta, Georgia, on Tuesday.
Kanye was dressed in an afro wig and was seen fighting with several famous faces, including Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Sacha Baron Cohen. Anchorman 2 will feature a host of big name stars in roles, such as Liam Neeson, Will Smith, John C. Reilly, Nicole Kidman, Jim Carrey and Jane Lynch. Meryl Streep is also hoping to make an appearance in the highly anticipated movie and has even approached returning cast member Steve Carell about getting her a part.
"Meryl told me she was a huge Anchorman fan and she'd love to have a cameo in the sequel. That could be really funny. There are going to be plenty of great cameos in this movie," Steve previously said.

Jane Lynch has joined the cast of The Three Stooges, a big screen story about the famous trio from the Farrelly brothers.
In the film, Lynch will play a nun at an orphanage, where the stooges live as children. The main cast of the film has been the subject of much speculation, with many names attached to certain roles. Early rumors indicated that Benicio Del Toro, Sean Penn and Jim Carrey would take on the title roles. Later, Johnny Knoxville and Andy Samberg were rumored to be up for two of the roles.
But it’s Chris Diamantopoulos, Will Sasso and Sean Hayes who will take on the iconic roles as Moe, Curly and Larry (in that order). The Thee Stooges production begins in May.
