If we were to say we’re “a little excited” about director Edgar Wright re-teaming with stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost for the movie THE WORLD’S END… we’d be WAY underselling our feelings. The film is almost upon us, and folks at San Diego Comic-Con will get a chance to party with the guys and possibly see the movie before anyone else. Info on that below. But for those who can’t make the big convention, check out two new fun featurettes below that shows some behind-the-scenes greatness with Edgar, Simon, Nick and the gang. Are you excited for THE WORLD’S END? If so tell us in the comments!

——————————
Director Edgar Wright and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reunite for a third film following the successes “Shaun of the Dead” (2004) and “Hot Fuzz” (2007). In “The World’s End,” 20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hellbent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by Gary King (Simon Pegg), a 40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their hometown and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub – The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realize the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.
