BRAD PITT’S NEW MOVIE BECOMES HAVEN FOR TERRORIST ACTIVITY
October 11 2011
Budapest, Hungary – Inevitably when his new movie launches critics will be remarking on Brad Pitt’s explosive performance onscreen, but according to Hungarian police it is the explosiveness behind the scenes that are really interesting.
The anti-terrorism department of the police in that country raided the production offices of Pitt’s new movie, ‘World War Z’, and confiscated nearly a hundred weapons. While production officials claim it is a misunderstanding, Hungarian officials have defended their raid which they claim yielded a treasure trove of full-functional weaponry.
Pitt was not in the offices at the time of the raid and has not been questioned by police, though police have requested a conversation. They have also recommended that the production be shut down pending further investigation.
Officials for the production claim they simply misfiled paperwork.
“Guns like these are highly illegal to transport even if they were to used as stage guns, which hopefully they weren't,” said a spokesperson for the anti-terrorist force. The weapons were apparently in fully working order and had been transported into the country wrapped in plain brown paper on a private plane.
“We are working with the authorities to resolve the matter and have no further comment at this time," a spokesperson told The Wrap.
Pitt’s company is behind the production of the film and it is not clear what ties they might have to terrorist organizations, nor what type of targets could be found in Hungary.
“I’m sure this really is a misunderstanding. This is a big movie made by a big studio and I really doubt that it would be used as a front for aiding terrorism in anyway. Besides, 85 guns isn’t really all that much. I mean you could probably take over Hungary with that many guns, but where do you go from there?” said Scrape TV Terrorism analyst Doug Davids. “Besides, Hungary is a go-to place for film production. I doubt very much that anyone would want to mess with that, not even Brad Pitt no matter his liberal leanings.”
Again, Pitt was nowhere near the production offices at the time of the raid and it is very rare for a movie star to be involved with operational details such as prop guns. The movie also stars Matthew Fox who did not beat up any women while filming.
“It’s hard to determine, without more details, exactly what has gone on here but it is more likely than not just a misunderstanding. Brad Pitt is loved the world over and he has a family and that makes it unlikely that he would do something like this,” continued Davids. “Of course that could also make for great cover. I mean no one would expect that Brad Pitt would be involved with international terrorism and so he can disguise it really well. That would be a great scheme and would be very effective.”
It’s believed likely that is Pitt was involved that he was doing it under duress.
