Tom Hanks has confirmed his support of Aston Villa.
The Hollywood A-lister met up with Villa's Player, Liaison and Welfare Officer Lorna McClelland at the premiere of his new film, Charlie Wilson's War.
Lorna chatted with the Big, Sleepless in Seattle, Green Mile and Philadelphia star in his own VIP lounge at Leicester Square's Empire Cinema.
Lorna said: "I was absolutely delighted to meet up with Tom and he seemed genuinely delighted when I told him I worked at Aston Villa FC.
"He told me he was a supporter of the club and when I offered him the chance to come to one of our home games, he said he'd absolutely love to when he next gets a chance.
"He also commented about how well the lads were doing in the Premier League at the moment."
Hanks stunned the watching world when he arrived in London draped in Villa's 'Proud History, Bright Future' scarf.
And Lorna added: "I asked him about the scarf and he said he was more than happy to be wearing it.
"He told me I'd be seeing him in it over the next few days."
Hanks was the subject of various interviews at the event last night and was asked about Villa by BRMB reporter, Jodie Ross.
He said: "Years ago, I saw the name Aston Villa float by on my TV screen and liked the name. In the life of every football fan, there comes a time when you have to declare your allegiance."
