Hollywood actor John Cusack is seeking a restraining order against a woman he claims has shown "an unusual interest" in his life for more than 18 months.

The star filed papers seen by the AP news agency in Los Angeles Superior Court against Emily Leatherman, 31, thought to be of no fixed abode.

Cusack, who said he had never met Ms Leatherman, asked that she be told to stay at least 500ft away from him.

The papers say she wants "a normal life and home" with Cusack, 40.
