Director: Edgar Wright (TV's Spaced, Shaun Of The Dead) HOT FUZZFor anyone who enjoyed
Shaun Of The Dead, you'll be pleased to hear that the same team have just started work on
Hot Fuzz, about a successful London cop (Nicholas Angel) who is seconded to the sleepy West Country village of Sandford, which is not quite as idyllic as it first appears...
Once again Edgar Wright will direct, with Simon Pegg starring as Angel. Nick Frost (
Shaun's Ed) will co-star, alongside British thesps Jim Broadbent, Timothy Dalton and Martin Freeman (
The Office).
Even better, the production has its own video blogs, available
here. Personally, I'm not particularly won over by the premise
of Hot Fuzz, but have faith in the geeky delights of the team behind
Spaced. Not sure if
Hot Fuzz will have quite the appeal in foreign territories, compared to zombie black-comedy
Shaun Of The Dead. But we'll see...
