Academy Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman, known for playing God in the 2003 comedy "Bruce Almighty," arrived in Israel on Sunday, visiting the Western Wall in order to shoot footage for a television show.

He arrived in Israel on Friday, after visiting the pyramids of Giza in Egypt, and is expected to stay until Tuesday.
