Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks is in talks to guest star in Britain's Miss Marple.

The star is reportedly a huge fan of the pensioner sleuth and is now in talks with ITV chiefs over appearing in the show. Tom, star of blockbusters such as Saving Private Ryan and Forrest Gump, is currently in the UK filming the movie version of The Da Vinci Code.

And he was said to be delighted when he discovered a second series of the hit show was being filmed nearby at Shepperton Studios, Middlesex. An ITV insider told The Sun: "Tom was excited when he heard they were filming on a nearby sound stage. "We have approached him for a guest role and he is considering it."
