Actor Emile Hirsch, star of the films Speed Racer and Into the Wild, was charged with felony assault for allegedly choking a woman during last month's Sundance festival in Park City, Utah.
Dani Bernfeld, VP of Digital Entertainment for Paramount Pictures, told police that Hirsch dragged her across a table and put her in a chokehold after they had a verbal argument at a nightclub.
Hirsch, 29, was reportedly arrested on the morning of the incident.
More recently, Hirsch has appeared in the film Lone Survivor and played Clyde Barrow in a Bonnie and Clyde TV movie.
Hirsch could see years of prison time if he's found guilty.
