Pitt eyes London home

Brad Pitt plans to move to England to be closer to rumoured lover Angelina Jolie and star in a gangster movie, the Sun reported.

Pitt, 41, who split this year with Jennifer Aniston, is looking for a 5 million ($12.8 million) London home, the newspaper said.

Jolie, 29, lives in a mansion in Buckinghamshire with adopted son Maddox.

Pitt is said to be keen to star in a film about a raid on the capital's Millennium Dome landmark in 2000, when police foiled a plot to steal 12 De Beers diamonds.
