The rumour mill has certainly been hot in Tunbridge Wells at the beginning of this week.
The local paper, The Courier, reported a few weeks back that the old Morrison's Supermarket site in Tunbridge Wells, opposite the station, is "allegedly" to be used by a Hollywood film crew as a location for zombie movie World War Z, starring Brad Pitt. It's been excitement ever since here, and yesterday the rumour mill went into overdrive as it was alleged Pitt was spotted at a local pub. Today it is said he has been seen on the historic Pantiles as well as in a local park enjoying a run.
Whether true or not, Kent is a very popular location for films to be shot. Most recently Knole House in Sevenoaks was used in the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie: On Stranger Tides; in the 2009 Sherlock Holmes film featuring Robert Downey Jnr and Jude Law a number of scenes were shot at the historic dockyards in Chatham; and the 2008 film The Other Boleyn Girl, starring Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman, was shot around the local area, including at Anne Boleyn's actual childhood home, Hever Castle.
