THE WORLD'S END has a complete script

Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg are one of the best combos out there, seriously. They have been working together for over a decade now through their cult series Spaced and their “Three Flavours Cornetto” trilogy, which as of now comprises of SHAUN OF THE DEAD and HOT FUZZ. The third film of the trilogy hasn’t been a secret, (THE WORLD’S END) and fans have been anxiously awaiting details about when the film might be happening.

Now, thanks to a photo from Simon Pegg, we know that the script is closer than ever to being finished and even has a completed draft. You can check out the photo after the break!

Simon Pegg trying to write new script with Edgar Wright before STAR TREK 2

Oh, Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright. They won us over big time when they blasted on to the scene with SHAUN OF THE DEAD. They then proved they could handle the follow-up, and made HOT FUZZ – a film that was different enough than their first, yet still had the same feel we came to expect after SHAUN. And we still have their long-talked about third film in the “Blood and Ice Cream” trilogy titled THE WORLD’S END to look forward to.

Pegg is letting us know they’ve got the ideas down, and is hoping to get some work in with Wright very soon. He said, “we already started the conception process, so it’s just a question of when we can get together. I’m just about to start shooting a movie here in the UK, so maybe between that and STAR TREK [sequel] we might get a chance to bang out a first draft if we’re lucky.” That could be a huge opportunity time for them to make some real progress. If they can finish the first draft, that means that it is much more likely that they will fit in actual production sooner.

When time permits, Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright will pen THE WORLD'S END

Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright burst on the scene with a film called SHAUN OF THE DEAD, the hilarious yet serious comedy about a man and his friends trying to make it through a zombie apocalypse. Following that, they went on to make HOT FUZZ, a film that is often considered a spiritual sequel to their first film. The third film of that spiritual trilogy, THE WORLD’S END, has been talked about for a long time, but has yet come to fruition.

The reason why is simply because they are so busy. But the boys are trying and planning to find time to get the script written. You can check out what Simon Pegg had to say after the break! Continue reading “When time permits, Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright will pen THE WORLD'S END” →

Edgar Wright's ANT-MAN is still on

Ever since rumblings first started surfacing of an Edgar Wright adaptation of ANT-MAN, my mind has been reeling with the possibilities. Not only does ANT-MAN seem like a really great fit for Wright, but a more comedic take on the character is highly intriguing due to some of the darker material related to character’s alter ego, Henry Pym.

Though it’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about the project, good ol’ Edgar was nice enough to give us a little update. Continue reading “Edgar Wright's ANT-MAN is still on” →

After the premiere its trailer last week, the buzz on SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD has been overwhelmingly positive (twitter search its title).

Now, thanks to Gamervision we have a deep look into all the work that has been put into the film, and how close it is to the original source material.

Still for SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD

SCOTT PILGRIM still

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD is a movie that has so much going for it. From an incredible cast, to an interesting story, and the incredible Edgar Wright directing. This is one of the first looks we have had at the film and, judging by the still, it seems that they got the look down just right.

SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD is based off the comic series by Bryan Lee O’Malley, and is the story of Scott Pilgrim, the bassist for “Sex Bob-omb.” Upon meeting the girl of his dreams, he must face her ex-boyfriends and defeat them before she will be his.

The film went into post-production a while back, which means we probably aren’t too far from away from a teaser and trailer. With the successes that Edgar Wright’s past films have been, I’m sure he has been given everything he needs to make this movie really great. SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD currently does not have an official release date, and is tentatively set for 2010.
