Russell Crowe is scheduled to appear in Manhattan criminal court Friday, accused of throwing a phone at a hotel concierge in June.

If convicted of assault and criminal possession of a weapon, the Oscar winner could lose his right to work in the United States and face seven years in prison. His lawyers have been working to reduce the charges.

Crowe, 41, is accused of flying into a rage in June when he had trouble calling his wife in Australia from his room at the Mercer Hotel in New York. He threw the phone, striking the concierge, authorities said.

Crowe, born in New Zealand and raised in Australia, won an Oscar for his role in the 2000 movie "Gladiator." His screen credits also include "The Insider," "A Beautiful Mind" and "Cinderella Man."
