Police raided the set of a film starring veteran Star Wars actor David Prowse after reports it was being used to shoot a porn movie.
The Staffordshire bungalow location was instead found to house actors filming dialogue for The Kindness of Strangers.
David Prowse, 74, who played Darth Vader in the original Star Wars films, is starring in the action thriller, reports Metro.
Neighbours had jumped to the wrong conclusion after seeing a camera and lighting equipment being taken into the bungalow in Newhall.
One film crew member, who did not want to be named, said: "It was hilarious to see a bunch of policemen enter the bungalow expecting to see a porn film carrying on.
"When the officers saw two dressed actors talking, they looked quite disappointed. The curtain twitchers certainly have a vivid imagination."
The Kindness Of Strangers is being directed by Deborah Hadfield, whose ex-husband owns the bungalow.
Filmed in Paris and Rome, it will premiere at next year's Cannes Film Festival.
