Pirelli has recruited Uma Thurman, star of Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction, to star in its new film to promote its PZero tyres.

Thurman throws a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder around Los Angeles while being chased by some unknown baddies with machine guns and rocket launchers.

This isn’t the first time a high profile star has been recruited by automotive marketing agencies. BMW released a series of films in 2002 promoting its model range and hired Clive Owen, Gary Oldman and even the legendary James Brown (RIP).
