Superstar Brad Pitt looks set to be taking a break from Hollywood... and heading for Morrisons!

Hot on the heels of Sherlock Holmes and Pirates of the Caribbean being shot in Kent, the Thelma and Louise star is rumoured to be coming to the former superstore in Tunbridge Wells for his new movie.

Kent County Council's Film Office said they couldn't confirm the rumours yet.

But spokesman Gabrielle Lindemann said: "Securing any filming is extremely competitive and we are always delighted when production companies choose Kent for both the economic benefit to the county and the opportunity to showcase what we have to offer."

She added: "There are many additional factors determining where a production will finally settle, including schedules, logistics, budgets and the opportunity to work without too many disturbances that can jeopardise actually getting the footage in the can."

The rumour mill started naming the star recently, with one Twitter user from Kent claiming the movie could be a zombie movie. He said: "It looks like it could be World War Z."

Another tweet said: "Move over Angelina. My turn."

Kent Film Council is now in the process of securing the movie's production in the county.
