Brad Pitt to film Zombie Epic in Scotland

Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt is heading to Scotland to film a new £80million zombie movie. Producers are going to transform parts of Glasgow into a war-torn ruin for blockbuster World War Z. The movie will be one of the biggest film shoots ever seen in Scotland.

Scenes being shot in the city centre will feature explosions and gunfire as Brad (47) battles to stop zombies taking over the world, with Glasgow doubling for the US city of Philadelphia. Streets around George Square will be closed in August as shooting begins and the square itself will be the base for the film crew and actors.

Producers plan to erect a tented village, complete with huge trailers for Brad and his co-stars.
Sources say he will spend two weeks shooting in Glasgow but it is not clear if his superstar wife Angelina Jolie and their six children will tag along.
