Brad Pitt has threatened legal action against anyone who publishes recently-taken nude photographs of the actor. The star was sunbathing naked on the balcony of his Los Angeles home recently, when an unknown paparazzo photographed Pitt in his birthday suit.

Gossip site PageSix.com reports Pitt's lawyer, John Lavely, has written a letter to US magazines and newspapers, warning the star will sue if the images are published.

Earlier this month, Pitt's ex-wife Jennifer Aniston filed an invasion of privacy suit against paparazzo Peter Brandt after he snapped the star sunbathing topless at her Hollywood Hills mansion.
