Hollywood has been spotted in Halifax, visiting one of the town’s Piece Hall shops.

Andy Serkis, who starred in the Lord of the Rings movies, popped into Pages N’ Pixels at the weekend.

He posed for a photo with the comic book shop’s owner, Ross Denby, who has shared the snap on the store’s Instagram page.

"The legendary Andy Serkis paid my precious (sorry) comic book shop a visit! Thanks for coming to see us,” he posted.

The Courier believes Andy could be in Halifax with his wife, actress Lorraine Ashbourne, who is in the area filming for Sally Wainwright’s latest TV drama Riot Women.

She and a host of other well-know actors and actresses were officially announced as part of the Riot Women cast last week.

Filming has been taking place in Hebden Bridge since June, and the crew were filming in Halifax town centre on Tuesday and Wednesday last week.

Andy is set to reprise his Lord of the Rings role of Gollum in the new forthcoming movie ‘Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum’, which he will also be directing.

His host of movie roles also include starring as Supreme Leader Snoke in ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’, ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’, and ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker’.
