Samuel L Jackson poses with Rangers shirt while filming new movie in West Lothian

Hollywood A-lister Samuel L. Jackson has seemingly confirmed where his Scottish football allegiances lie after he was spotted posing with a Rangers shirt while filming in West Lothian.

The 74-year-old has been spotted in the area in recent weeks filming for a new movie, with locals driving around areas such as Bathgate and Livingston to catch a glimpse of the American actor.

Starring in some of the industry's biggest movies such as Pulp Fiction, Star Wars and various films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Samuel has been spotted in West Lothian with production crews as they film scenes for an upcoming action blockbuster.

As the Record reports, the actor took the time between shots to interact with fans and was also given a Rangers home shirt to hold up and sign.

The top is now set to be auctioned off for two charities - the Emmie Smillie Charity Foundation and Kilbryde Hospice.

Residents of Bathgate were left stunned after catching a glimpse of the superstar as he stood in the rain on the town's Mid Street filming scenes on Thursday night.

One West Lothian woman was left thrilled as her video of the star went viral following a four hour hunt to catch a glimpse.

Deborah Gemmell tracked down the actor last week last week before posting the clip that feature her shouting "Nick Fury" at him as she drives by before the star joked: "This is the third time you've been by!"
