Film stars Brad Pitt and Daniel Craig were among those watching from the stands as Novak Djokovic attempted to defend his Wimbledon title against Carlos Alcaraz.

Academy Award-winning actor Pitt was in England last weekend, appearing at the Silverstone Circuit ahead of the British Grand Prix, to film scenes for his forthcoming Formula 1 feature film.

On Sunday, the 59-year-old, wearing a turquoise polo shirt and aviator sunglasses, appeared at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London with Hollywood filmmaker Guy Ritchie and film producer Jeremy Kleiner.

James Bond star Craig, wearing a grey suit and striped tie, also made an appearance in the Royal Box with his wife and Oscar-winning actress Rachel Weisz, who was wearing a cream suit.

The Hollywood stars watched from the stands as reigning champion Djokovic played 20-year-old Alcaraz in a bid for a record-equalling eighth Wimbledon title.

Australian actor Hugh Jackman shared a picture of himself suited and booted at the event, in a bid to support Djokovic alongside his wife Deborra-Lee Furness and Djokovic’s wife Jelena.

The Wolverine star captioned it: “Beyond excited to be at @wimbledon to support @djokernole!!! Let’s goooooo!”

Music stars also dominated the event, with British rapper Stormzy spotted in the crowd, as well as US singers Nick Jonas and Ariana Grande, who was sporting long blonde locks, sat next to Spider-Man film star Andrew Garfield and Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey.

Grande and Bailey are co-starring in the musical adaption of Wicked, which is filming in Buckinghamshire, with Grande playing the witch Glinda and Bailey playing her love interest Fiyero.

Harry Potter actress Emma Watson was sat in the crowd wearing a straw hat, alongside her brother Alex Watson, while Happy Valley star James Norton was also watching the final with British actress Imogen Poots.

British model Poppy Delevingne was also pictured at the 14th day of the championship, wearing a navy skirt and matching crop top, paired with a white bomber jacket with navy blue detailing.
