Hollywood action star Chris Pine pleaded guilty to charges of drunk driving in New Zealand on Monday after being pulled over earlier in the month, according to the Associated Press.
Pine was hit with a $79 fine and will have his New Zealand driver’s license suspended for six months.
The actor was stopped by police on March 1, following a party to celebrate the wrap of the film Z for Zachariah. AP reported that Pine’s blood-alcohol level was 0.11 percent, which exceeds the .08 legal limit.
