In addition, Oliver on a recent TV chat show claimed that producers called his London offices saying: 'We're contacting Brad Pitt to be Jamie Oliver.'

If the Hollywood heart-throb does take the role, he will play a celebrity chef who takes 15 unemployed Londoners aged 16 to 24, and attempts to turn them into accomplished chefs - a process that enthralled six million British viewers of Jamie's Kitchen who followed the transformation.
