After allegedly drink driving last weekend, Chris Pine is facing DUI charges in New Zealand.

The actor has been filming his new movie, Z For Zachariah, in Methven. He was reportedly pulled over by cops on March 1 after he left a wrap party for the film. His blood-alcohol level was higher that the legal limit.

A statement from Canterbury Police reads, “A 33-year old American national was stopped during a routine drink-drive operation near Methven, Mid-Canterbury, early on Saturday morning, March 1. He has been charged with driving with excess blood alcohol and will appear in the Ashburton District Court on Monday 17 March.”

    Chris Pine is back on the old trace. This is very sad when celebrities are getting in scandalous events like this. This is the break of the law, but famous people seems to get rid of such ‘nuances’ fast well, I am happy the law works same way for everyone, but when you are popular you need to watch what you d as you serve an example for many of your fans, especially children and teens. I still sincerely hope this is not going to repeat. In this case a new country – a new fine record!
