Brad Pitt is learning to drive a tank as he prepares for his latest role as a US soldier on a mission behind enemy lines in World War Two drama 'Fury'.

The idea is to make the battle scenes more realistic and the producers have scheduled training sessions for Pitt and his co-stars, in Wiltshire and Germany.

A source revealed that these camps will involve hardcore physical exercise as well as advanced tank driving, the Sun reported.

Steven Spielberg did a similar thing for 'Saving Private Ryan', which made the actors feel like real soldiers.

Fury, directed by David Ayer, co-staring Shia Labeouf, will release next year.
