Scottish Hollywood star spotted in West Lothian pub as filming takes place inside

West Lothian has seen its fair share of famous Hollywood stars over the last month, as filming takes place across the county for a new movie about a Scottish serial killer.

Actor John Hannah stars alongside Samuel L Jackson in film Damaged, and the pair have been spotted filming in Bathgate and Livingston recently, reports the Daily Record.

John took some time out of his busy schedule to pose with some bar staff from The Tower pub in Craigshill, Livingston.

The Four Weddings and a Funeral star was filming scenes for the upcoming movie inside the pub, and the owners said they were "sworn to secrecy" while he was around.

However, they did manage to persuade the actor to put on a pub t-shirt to give the popular establishment a plug on social media.

The Tower said on Facebook on Saturday: “So we were sworn to secrecy but we had the film crew for the new movie Damaged filming scenes inside and outside the pub last night and Scotland’s own John Hannah was kind enough to put on one of the new Tower Tee’s for us.”

Marvel megastar Samuel L Jackson had been spotted in West Lothian last month filming scenes for Damaged, which centres around a Scottish serial killer.

He had been nabbed by eagle-eyed fans filming in Bathgate, and at Almond Valley Heritage Centre in Livingston.
