Brad Pitt taking tank lessons

Actor Brad Pitt has been learning to drive a tank for his role in World War Two drama "Fury".
The 49-year-old is mastering the mechanisms of the military machine for his role as an American soldier in the movie, reported Sun Online.
Tank training had been arranged by producers for Pitt and the other cast members so the battle scenes will be as realistic as possible on screen.
"These boot camps will involve hardcore physical exercise as well as advanced tank driving," a source said.
Bosses got the idea for the tank training from Steven Spielberg who did the same thing when he shot his epic military movie "Saving Private Ryan".

The lessons have been taking place in Wiltshire, South West England, and Germany. Pitt Brad stars in "Fury" with Shia LaBeouf and the movie is directed by David Ayer.
The film centres on a Sherman tank commander, played by Pitt, and his crew who find themselves behind enemy lines in Nazi Germany in April 1945 just as the war is coming to an end.
Shooting on the picture is due to begin in September this year, and a release date has been set for November 2014.
