Simon Pegg Reviews, Interviews & More
Edgar Wright’s upcoming The World’s End, his third and final film in the loose Cornetto trilogy that also includes Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, is, without doubt, one of our most anticipated films of 2013. Starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the film turns an epic pub crawl into a sci-fi laced fight for survival.
The biggest problem with a sequel to a successful comedy is that it's hard not to either disappoint, or basically remake the first film. Such is why The Hangover sequels have been so disappointing. Often, the best solution is to get the gang back together, but do something completely different. Here's out top ten list of films that brought back a lot of the same...
Yesterday, we showed you two new posters for Edgar Wright’s upcoming The World’s End, his third and final film in the loose Cornetto trilogy that also includes Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz.

One of our most anticipated films of this year would have to be Edgar Wright’s The World's End, as it will be the third and final film in the director’s Three Flavors Cornetto trilogy (each film features a character eating one of the three flavors). First there was the horror comedy Shaun of the Dead, which found the director toying with the zombie...
It's about time that we're presented with yet another new poster for Edgar Wright's latest movie The World's End, only because there are a number of us who just want a new film by the writer/director. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World felt like it came out a decade ago so audiences are long overdue for another dose of Edgar Wright movie goodness.
In the next two days it will be officially the start of the summer season. Within the month of May we're already being flooded with a number of high adrenaline blockbuster films, Star Trek Into Darkness being one of them. While we're still waiting to hear whether or not the sequel is any good, or a direct rip-off of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,...
Some friends get together and chat away with a cup of coffee in their hands or a plate of food in front of them. Gary King (Simon Pegg) would rather solidify the bonds of brotherhood through a massive pub crawl. Edgar Wright and company have finally dished out a couple more images for The World's End, and we're super happy to see them.
Paramount is continuing the trend of releasing a trailer for the trailer by dropping the first teaser for J.J. Abrams' highly-anticipated movie Star Trek Into Darkness. The clip, which runs a little over a minute, features tons of stunned faces, screams and explosions. Take a look.
Edgar Wright has quickly become one of our favorite director’s of the past decade, subverting and simultaneously paying tribute to genre filmmaking with such cult wonders as Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. So it’s with no small degree of anticipation that we hum loudly and rock back and forth as we wait for his fourth film, The...
It's go time on Edgar Wright's latest The World's End, which we knew would star Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. But who else is in this cast? Not only does Wright have an eye for talent, he's been great at getting some of England's best in his previous movies. As it turns out, he's added some ringers.
Edgar Wright has directed some of the best and most entertaining cult films of the past decade—Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and news broke today that he’s officially set to make yet another: The World’s End.

For those who have been wondering exactly what the deal is with Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man, look no further: Wright spent a week earlier this month “shooting footage for a reel that will be used to test out the potential look and tone of his movie, as well as to decide how convincing Ant-Man’s powers look on screen.” Ooh, curious now? Read on for...
It’s been a bustling month in the world Star Trek sequel news—from Khan being all but officially confirmed as the Star Trek 2 villain, to costar Simon Pegg stating Khan wasn’t in the picture, to a blink or you’ll miss it preview of the Klingons in the upcoming film. Now, even more details have emerged, with co-writer Damon Lindelof and star Chris Pine taking turns...
When Star Trek 2 was casting its villain, it was unknown who the big baddie would be. Sure, there are the Klingons, the Romulans and more to play with. But as for human villains, the only name that means anything to mainstream audiences is Khan Noonien Singh, villain of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. However, Simon Pegg says that Benedict...

Followers of Simon Pegg’s Twitter feed were treated to an early Easter gift on Friday when the comedic actor Tweeted the new trailer for his utterly bizarre-looking new film, A Fantastic Fear of Everything, a comedy which seems to mash serial killing, children’s novels, artistic anxiety, and Wes Anderson-esque framing into a...
Post-Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, we haven't heard much of what Edgar Wright has been up to. Sure, he's hosted a couple of festivals at The New Beverly in Los Angeles, but other than rumors of Ant-Man, nothing. So yesterday on Twitter, Wright laid out what looks to be his next project: The World's End. For those in the know, that's the...
With The Adventures of Tintin, Steven Spielberg has finally decided to play with some of the newest toys of cinema, and in his first motion capture film, he revolutionizes the format. Moreso than Avatar, here Spielberg is let loose to play with the camera as he sees fit, and you can see an invigorated director who's able to stage sequences in...
