Simon Pegg to pen 'World's End' "very soon
Simon Pegg has pledged to begin work on a script for The World's End "very, very soon".
The Paul comedian teased that fans could expect a "very different" closer to his 'Cornetto Trilogy', which - like previous films Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz - will be written and directed by Edgar Wright and co-star Nick Frost.
"Edgar and me have been very determined that we're going to start in earnest very, very soon," he told Ain't It Cool News. "Not just do the same thing again, to do something very different. Not to the point of alienating people who want something, but just give people something new and something different.
"You can't just stay where you are forever. You have to mutate to survive, and I think we're going to make sure that we do that. I'd hate to become stale and predictable."
Pegg, who will juggle the project with his commitment to the upcoming Star Trek sequel, also spoke of his determination for The World's End to outdo the pictures of his similarly-minded contemporaries.
"People are already making films that are kind of like the sort of thing we might do. I want to stay a little bit ahead of the curve at least," he said.
Wright previously told Digital Spy that work on The World's End would begin this year.
