Chris Pine doing Leeds accent after going to uni there is not what you'd expect

In his time of studying and immersing himself in the British university culture, Pine picked up a weirdly accurate imitation of a Leeds accent, which he showed off during a 2010 interview with Digital Spy. Have a listen below:

During his interview, the Star Trek actor also revealed that his time on Brudenell Road was spent studying enjoying 'pasties', which helped him perfect his attempts at the Leeds twang.

His attempt he can be heard saying authentic Yorkshire phrases like 'Ta love', and 'Aye', as well as 'Would you care for a pasty love?'

Fans of the star have praised his accent, with some saying it's 'great' and 'scarily good'.

One fan even commented: "Leeds accent! Hilarious and spot on!"

However, some aren't sure he quite nailed the northern city sound, as one viewer wrote: "Chris sounds like Shrek when he does the Leeds accent."

Another shared: "Not quite the accent but I'll give him credit..."

Some even thought Pine sounded more like he hailed from Liverpool than Leeds, with one saying: "It sounded slightly liverpool but hey! im from leeds and it wasnt a bad try."

Another agreed: "Not a bad Liverpudlian accent, but not a Leeds one."

"That was a scouse twang, miles away from the leeds drawl," said another.

One even joked: "haha his Leeds accent is terrible, but his Liverpool accent is great! I think he got the two mixed up."

Pine has been celebrating the success of his latest role in Don't Worry Darling, which received a four minute standing ovation at Venice International Film Festival last night (Monday 5 September).

The rift has apparently become so big that Wilde and Pugh avoided each other on the red carpet and at the screening, despite both being in attendance.

Pugh posed for pictures alongside Pine and fellow co-stars, including Gemma Chan, Sydney Chandler, and Nick Kroll.

Earlier in the day, Pugh was also absent from the Venice Film Festival press conference where stars Harry Styles, Pine and Wilde were in attendance.

According to Wilde, Pugh could not attend the press conference due to scheduling conflicts with her upcoming film Dune 2, as her flight from Budapest would be arriving later that day.

"I know, as a director, how disruptive it is to lose an actor even for a day, so I'm very grateful to her, and to (Dune director Denis Villeneuve) for helping us.

"And we'll get to celebrate her work tonight. I can't say how honoured I am to have her as our lead. She's amazing.

"As for all the endless tabloid gossip and all the noise out there, the Internet feeds itself. I don't feel the need to contribute; I think it's sufficiently well-nourished."
