Movie star Morgan Freeman has shown his support for New Zealand on the Late Show with David Letterman, although he cannot explain why.

The Shawshank Redemption star appeared on the show on Monday night, sporting a black New Zealand Rugby World Cup hat.

When probed by Letterman if he was a fan of rugby, he said no.

"It's just one of those things," Freeman replied.

The actor was on the show to promote his new movie, The Dark Knight Rises, which opened in New Zealand cinemas today.
